    For everyones sake, get him to stop smoking!!!

    Sounds harsh ..Yep I know, Show him this thread....

    Hubby smoked for 20 years plus, I hate the smell but would he stop.. like heck he would....
    He gave up after a heart attack... that soon put the fear up him!!!
    Ban him from smoking near the house and the children - AND YOU....

    Good Luck - you will be quids in if he can tackle that..x

    He only smokes outside even in the rain, I cant stand it. He tries to avoid smoking in front of the kids. He has cut down before but the enviroment he's in at work involves him getting a break every hour and he cannot sit upstairs in and not have a cigarette, and there is no-where else to go. The smoking and no-smoking rooms are pretty much the same room and really bad air con. How it gets passed health and safety i do not know. God bless next year when he'll have to stand outside each break in the middle of the night!

    Thanks for everyone's advice, I know it's quite limited to budge things about and I have decided after listening to you that i have to stop the childrens saving for now. Also nspcc, thats just lazyness. Will talk to hubby next time I see him!
