'Take me up Snowdon? I should cocoa!'

Of the canine or other variety.<br /> Stoopy, you're a legend.<br /> Wally, you'll be a legend for a lot longer now you've kicked the weed.<br /> Now I'm going to be a paragon of good health and feed my unborn child some white wine. Mmmmm. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6544 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 17:16:09 +0000 ramblesid 6544@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Christ Rikkor that's witty. Have you thought about changing your dog to one of those small, yappy breeds. They're nice and easy to kick. Hey!-just like you.<br /> Sorry Wallster, I came on here to say congrats and keep it up and got a bit distracted. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6540 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 16:48:13 +0000 rikkor 6540@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Stoopy, please start drinking and smoking again. Your writing was much funnier. Remember, all great authors were and are hideous alcoholics who smoke a lot (yes, including Shakespeare, Gerard "Not So Manley" Hopkins and Jackie Collins). </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6443 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 08:33:07 +0000 jp1885 6443@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Wallster, you rock sir - keep it up! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6433 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 08:13:48 +0000 edward hack 6433@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Keep it up Walls<br /> Like MCA says - You will always feel the urge, no matter how long you go. But stick with it.<br /> Stoopy - 65 days sounds more like a sentence than a trial. But that's the way I did it too - break the pub/beer/just one more won't hurt routine.<br /> It helps if you haven't got any mates too. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6380 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 19:08:14 +0000 The All New Jeni B 6380@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>My grandad stopped for 32yrs. He started smoking again after minor surgery. When he came round from the anaesthetic, the first thing he did was head to the smoking room. (This was when there were smoking rooms on every hospital ward, including Maternity). </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6357 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 17:35:21 +0000 MrChigleysAunt 6357@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Don't want to piss on your parade but I once gave up smoking for two years, then started again. A couple of years after that, I finally gave up. It's been 12 years now AND I COULD STILL DO WITH A BLOODY CIGARETTE! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6344 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 16:16:06 +0000 The All New Jeni B 6344@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I fucking hate smug ex-smokers.</p> <p>(But give it a few weeks for the Champix to kick in.) </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6343 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 15:49:00 +0000 wallster 6343@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Good luck Stoopy. </p> <p>I found one of the most helpful things in my struggle was that people no longer smoke inside pubs. </p> <p>Every time I've tried in the past, it's been the 'oh just the one then' cigarette in the pub which has been my downfall. </p> <p>I sure hope you're able to kick the habit. There's a fantastic feeling of smugness to be had in becoming a born again non smoker. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6338 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 15:08:42 +0000 StoopyDeGunt 6338@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Well done Wallster. Keep it up.</p> <p>I'm taking part in a long clinical trial, and I won't get paid if I smoke or drink.</p> <p>I'm hoping that 65 days without beer will help me cut the association between drinking and smoking.</p> <p>There's no other way I could stop smoking. I'm no quitter. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6317 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 13:08:18 +0000 nealdoran 6317@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>That reminds me *pretends to write note a la Bruce Forsyth on Generation Game* Must buy garlic.</p> <p>Great work the Walsterster. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6316 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 13:05:36 +0000 Mary Evans 6316@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Well done you, Wallster - that's fantastic.<br /> And your wife is a very open-minded woman. My husband's been trying that for years, but I insist we remain in the valley. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2136#post-6315 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 13:00:32 +0000 wallster 6315@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Some of you may remember last October when I rather boldly announced that after 20 odd years of blissful addiction, I'd finally decided to stop smoking.</p> <p>And many of you kindly reminded me of the painful torment of a cancerous death that awaited me should I fall off the fag wagon.</p> <p>Well, next Wednesday will see the completion of my 6th entirely smoke free month. Whoop-de-doo. Never thought I'd see the day.</p> <p>To celebrate, I'm taking the wife up Snowdon on Saturday. She'll enjoy that. </p>
