"Time Flies"

Hi everyone.....17mths quit for me now after 52yrs smoking. Special thanks to some of my friends on this site for each inspiring and offering advice when needed most...namely Lia, Dobbin, Stevo and Red. All the newbies out there....stick to your quit journeys.....as it does get better in time. All the best to everyone. Cheers.

Hey Red....you doing fine too mate. That packet you kept.....throw it in incinerator probably all stale anyway. Cheers

Hi Johnnie. Wishing you and "all the others" a super Christmas. Enjoy the aromas of the festive food and the uninterrupted conversations around the Xmas tree and feasting table knowing ducking outdoors for a u know wot is no longer necessary.

Hi Lia, yes will do. Hope you and "all the others" too have a super Christmas. Cheers.

Gooday Steve been a while. Glad you still holding up mate. Yeah urges come and go but they pass. The old listerine and toothpaste brushing works well too. Very strong tasting but helps. These days i like a "Blitz mint" when and if i get the urge. But mate at $30-$40 bucks a pack why would you want to go back?. Anyway Steve you have a nice Xmas too. Cheers.

Johnnie, congrats on your great personal achievement.
Its a fantastic feeling to be free, but always with caution.
Meri kirihimete.
Merry christmas and a great 2018.

Hi Johnnie. Great effort Mate. We are all aware what a real prize this is after those early days of pain and torture. My wife and I are staying in a fabulous hotel in Cornwall England but have to face the gambit of the smokers when we enter the front door here. So glad I’m not one of them. Have a great Christmas mate and a prosperous new year.

Hi Dobbin , yes mate i see the same things at Shopping Cetres.....people contiuously flocking to stairwells and isolated areas to get their kicks even being oblivious to "no smoking " signs. Well that is the life they choose....we too once were macho. Anyway feels good to be quit and all the best to you Dobbin. Cheers.
