Day 4 of non smoking. I haven't caved in yet.

[Pat Vegas]

And I find the smell of smoke repulsive as I walk past smokers.

Apart from that I feel dizzy all day and want to puke.

cameras. The nightshift was halfway interesting for once.

Poor show no-one trying to convince Nic to circumvent the claims process or telling him to wipe his cock across the windscreen, though.

What is AWIMB coming to when nobody's giving people bad or useless advice to people with a problem? Everyone was so helpful and nice it made me want to vomit. :-(

[Pat Vegas]

one of the other cars 'flashed' him to go right.

The flashing of lights is not a official rule of the road.

Although this has no bearing on what followed it's better not to mention that bit.

spotted the derby on the horizon, so bought another 200 and will give up after that

on top of it rather than driving.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Is that what you are? :-(

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

You're all sheep.

[Berni]

peer pressure.

person. Of course there also seems to be one between a horrific cancer-ridden death and smoking. Oh well, you pick your battles and so on.

[Berni]

The whole 'I am a devil-may-care adventurer cocking a snoook at eternity by sucking on a fag' thing is a bit adolescent, really, isn't it?

That said, I find people who have never smoked a bit f**king vanilla, I must admit.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

For 80 years the Socialists have been trying to turn us into automata, happy to work in the turnip fields without reward. To do so, they must break us down so that we are no longer sentient individuals. One of the ways they do this is by convincing us that anything pleasurable is bad and should be rejected. Smoking is but one example.

My motto, 'Keep puffing away to keep the commies at bay.'

[Berni]

much of a dent in the New World Order's plans to crush the human spirit, is it? In fact, you're helping to pay for the health campaigns they use against us.

[Luis Anaconda]

I mean I have tried cigarettes but never been a smoker if that makes sense

[the splendor of antigone]

himself something he enjoys. It's a sad sight. Again, of course so are the stained yellow teeth and having to listen to wheezing.

[Berni]

You really have to push through the disgusting taste, nausea and horrible smell before you can really learn to enjoy a cigarette.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Yet shall I fight on! For what is a man if he yields before his enemy, rolling on his back and offering his throat, but a beaten cur? I would rather live a day as a lion and go to my fiery end with a smile on my lips and the knowledge that my sacrifice was an evocation of the human spirit!

Like in 1940. And 1965.

[Berni]

I think again this may be something smokers tell themselves to make themselves feel better about it.

[Berni]

Although I suppose if you fall asleep while drunk with a fag on...

mental breakdown of sorts.

[Berni]

as heroic as you're suggesting. I just want don't want you filling the youngster's heads with such nonsense, you see?

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I've got a few books you might want to peruse.

[Classic Jorge]

I don't think you've thought this through though, whenever you go back to Italy you'll be stuck on the children's table at weddings.

[Berni]

One minute you're on fire, the next you're on a battlefield. Make your mind up.

[Classic Jorge]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Where are YOU confronting the Red Menace? Hmm? On the battlefield? In the smoking area? Hmm?

Think on.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Classic Jorge]

....fairly smokey in itself?

I reckon you might be doing your bit to keep the old communist values alive.

I for one applaud you for that, top red-under-the-beddery

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

When I raised his local offering to my lips, all the 'tobacco' fell out.

The smoke was mainly from Trabants, as I recall. The local cigarette ration was never that generous.

[Classic Jorge]

I once heard Ken Clarke talk about the types of cigarette tobacco and how it's zoned out. If they want to get a country on their fags they up the quality of them in places.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Do you understand what was going on then, j? These poor Romanians weren't being oppressed by the Evil West, you know.

[Classic Jorge]

PS Ken Clarke worked for BAT

[Ashberto]

When was the last time you saw an advert for tobacco? Even the small independent shops have to keep them in cupboards now. That's the Tory nanny-state for you. At least New Labour trousered some cash from Ecclestone to keep racing car liveries interesting for a while longer.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I care not one f**k who Ken Clarke worked for.

[Brentwood]

Nic?
