Definately not Jo never complacent :rotfl: :rotfl: . 6000 posts don't think so . I was thinking more of a volutary count up something like -

Hi my name is IDA and I quit smoking with Jo1972 and I'm quitter number 2 !

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

We could do a collective 'how much Jo's thread has saved us' count - pick a point in the future (say end May) and all record how much we will have saved to that point.

I know that I couldn't have done it without this thread - so Jo will have personally saved me about £275 by then. :A

Hi FeelingLow.. you found the thread then?

I'll second what Feedumall says .. just saying "can't wait to be a non smoker" speaks volumes

welcome
I'd like to say this thread is awesome, the people in it are giving me the encouragement others around me are lacking and it really does help. The PMs I've got from people about quitting are really helpful and I have to say are also very touching.

And i'll reiterate what the others have said about your choice of words. It speaks volumes.

FeelingLow

thanks for the warm welcome, & thanks to Waspeze for directing me here
