The Giving Up Smoking Thread!!

Adzha

Yeah houses are bad prices... can you not work still?

TOBRUK

No not at the moment, I have ME which has made life extremely difficult, I also have a disability (I lost the use of my right arm after an accident) although this has never held me back! I was speaking to my GP the other day about prospects of my future in terms of working and she shook her head. The only realistic way I could work again is to work from home, and even that I may struggle with. But I am not going to give in and give up!

Adzha

I'm so sorry to hear that

TOBRUK

Oh there's no need to feel sorry - there are many who are a lot worse off!;) It's life, and through life there are many trials and tribulations and you have to make changes along the way and adjust! One thing they can't take away from me is me sense of humour, which I am pleased to say I still have ... although a little warped maybe

Adzha

Pontyclun sounds welsh

Anyway got a week off for half term

TOBRUK

So Adzha you have stopped smoking now for how long?

Adzha

Well I quit 28th August
But have had many slip ups (most 2 days though)

TOBRUK

Yes Pontyclun is a village not far from Llantrisant - about 8 miles from Cardiff. I bought a house here as I was working in Cardiff as it is more rural - as I am a country girl! I had lived in Cardiff for a couple of years in rented accomodation but it almost drove me mad! Not many here speak Welsh but it's ok - back home there is more Welsh spoken - it's my first language.

Oh that's good though, you haven't used patches or anything have you?
