Re: Not Smoking.
I started smoking at 13 years of age, Willy Woodbines were available singly in a shop on Cotton Street, on the way to Woodnook School. went on to full packets of Woodbines, Park Drive, Number six, etc; then started rolling my own with Golden Virginia.
Tried to give over many times, I once managed to stop for over twelve months probably thirty or so years ago but a King Edwards Imperial given to me after a meal out one night undid all my hard work.
Called into my G.P.s Surgery seven years ago, where after breathing into a lung testing tube device, the doctor wrote down 50% on a form; when I questioned what the 50% was she stated that I had 50% lung capacity but that's thr same as having one lung I replied. Correct! and it won't get any better whilst you are still smoking. Ihave not had any weed of any kind since. So I started at 13 year's of age and stopped at 63 year's of age.
It needs the initial jolt to shock you into giving over. (I have now become an apprentice alcoholic). Only Joking, (I think).
