After smoking for around fifty eight years solid it does seem strange. We both admit to getting cravings occasionally, but less as it goes on.
(if I could give up the booze).

Re: Today I'm happy about......
Yes, I suppose there is. I stopped desiring cigarettes well before I conquered my addiction. The addiction would have been impossible to overcome if the desire had still been in place.Montreal Wanderer wrote:There's a difference between desire and addiction...Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Oh yes it does.

I have no desire to ever smoke again. In fact, the thought of it rather disgusts me now.
May the bridges I burn light your way

Well done Dan! What's the plan now?

Virgin Media announce this morning that all top package customers will get the BT Sports channel for free.
In fact the channel has already appeared in my listing!
