Good on yer Peter! My dad had to quit 2 years ago for health reasons after smoking for 50 years and much of it 40 a day. Just think of the money you will save, the health benefits and how much nicer you will smell!!! I only say that because my husband smokes and the smell is awful. Good luck Diane

Peter, Good luck to you and your wife. I quit 5 years ago after smoking for 46 years. It's hard but after 3 days it does begin to get a bit easier. Hang on in there. It will be worth it. Jean x.

I wish you Good Luck also Peter. I am still a smoker and desparatley want to give up. But keep on finding excuses. I did go 8 months without one two years ago. They say the more times you try, the more likely you are to succeed. I used the Patches, but found the Micro Tabs really good, when you get that really bad craving. Much better than the Lozengers or Gum. I have a supply of both Patches and Microtabs and will try to join you very soon. Is it this Wednesday the official No Smoking Day? Jenny.
