    I was bored and started from the beginning, got to page 80 before I gave up. Your mission to ensnare ex-smoking maybes worked though, you got me.

    I think I said a few posts up two years at the end of July. And yes, I'm one of those insufferable ex-smokers who evangelises, so BE PREPARED! :rotfl:

    I did? Woo!

    TNG, normally I would say I don't like to be preached at BUT it's only guilt that makes you think that because you know you should be doing it, I mean what else could that 30 quid a week be going on? Saving up for a new laptop maybe.

    Ummm,

    Am i allowed to rear my head again?

    Ive had another "i need to quit moment" this time it is purely money related, was playing on the snowball calculator and put in the number of cigs i have a week and the price i pay and its a whopping £667.22 per year.

    Thats £55.60 a month. Now since i want to save a lump sum and then use it to pay off a cc this will help no end.

    i tried and failed a few months back, but this time im going to take my time and actually plan it out.

    Will lurk for a while and will see how i get on, but i think it really is time for change, have said this 50 times before i know and everyone gets bored of me quitting and then starting again, any tips or advice greatley received because i need to make it work this time!!
