    How did you start then? :D

    I miss filling the boredom and the smoke etc. but hopefully my health should improve. (except my bowel which has gone worse - sorry for the detail :))

    Can't really remember now, so long ago :o:o:o

    Definitely by 13, though. Probably 11 or 12

    It doesn't matter whether the age is 16, 18, 21 or 84, it won't stop kids starting, infact it makes it more exciting as it's forbidden

    The thing is now it is not sociably accepted and there are so many places you are unable to smoke - I think this may make a big difference. Years ago not much was made of the fact someone smoked even with the health warnings.

    Quit at 28 when she found she was pregnant

    I bet she does - even if you don't think she does! There's nothing as sensitive as an ex-smoker's nose......
