Smokers on here

[Dembe]

You have to be rich to smoke these days, was it is £20 for twenty? Insane….most smokers I knew did 20 a day easy, about £500 a month in todays money….never been a smoker bar a bit of weed in my 20’s.

Just looked online Tesco was the first to pop up. Lamberts are £13.80 and I remember people moaning they were going up to over £8 and the day they reach a tenner they'll never smoke again...I didn't realise they'd gone up that much in a few years.

At them prices thats over £5000 a year to smoke, I appreciate many last a pack out a few days but still, that is an awful lot to be blowing on literally nothing. Same ones that moan about ambulance waiting times and how busy the hospitals are...

Do what makes you happy

Dembe, that’s what I thought as long as I don’t bother other people and what the heck at my age!!

Today at the age of 72 i would really urge the younger generation to refrain from smoking altogether. Having a drink with friends and family is alright as long as it isn't used on a continual basis and finally the only time i would recommend anyone taking medication would be when prescribed by a doctor.

Funnily enough, my health improved considerably when I stopped taking prescription medicine from the doctor!

Ultimately thats all that matters, you won't stop nosy ****ers having opinions on just about ant and every aspect of your life, but **** 'em.

I don't remember the last time I went to one. I recently had an infection in my fingernail and it's still there but I cant get an appointment, I rarely use prescription medicine and I try not to use things like co-codamol unless absolutely necessary.
