    If you don't want to quit see if you can get hold of some duty free baccy... a fiver for 50g which will last a 20 a day smoker 2weeks!

    Well, you have your bus pass money put aside, so you should be able to do that. :) You may have to get up a bit earlier and eat your breakfast at home, though... ;)
    Never underestimate the power of the techno-geek... ;)
