@ LordSpunky

I wish you well if you want to give up smoking, it's your decision and your decision only... :)

Myself I smoked Cigars since the age of 17 and was by the age of 35 smoking 20 a day, but when then then wife told me I was time to stop for financial reasons I changed to cigarettes and still smoke 40 a day right now... :)

Four years ago I had a spontaneous pneumothorax (collapsed lung) and was hospitalised and warned never to smoke again. First thing I did on release from the hospital was stand at the main entrance and puff away happily on my first 3 fags in seven days... :)

Still haven't stopped smoking and back up to 40 a day, why... because believe it or not I actually enjoy all aspects of smoking despite what it does to my health. I wont be stopping till I'm in a wooden box for the simply reason smoking aint gonna kill me my other medical problem will get me first which is a Cavernous Angioma.

So for me I may as well keep enjoying the pleasure I get from smoking as you only live once and why give up something you enjoy in life... :)

I wish you good luck and hope you succeed if that is truly want you want to do... :)

40 years smoking 20 per day and then I decided to minimize but not quit. So now I'm down to 4 small cigars per day and going to keep that minor enjoyment - mostly connected to some drinks...Well, wonder my lungs are still pretty OK, 110 - 125% values in PEF related measurements!?


You need to go up to 40 a day at my last check up I was reaching 135% PEF... ;)

I'm an active person too, my right arm and hand when smoking a fag goes from my mouth to the ashtray and average of 400 times a day (10 puffs per fag x 40 per day)... :)

My diet is even more impressive, nice greasy fry up for breakfast Bacon, Eggs , Potato Scones, 2 Vindaloos or 2 Chinese Curry's for dinner, at least 6 bags of crisps per day, countless sweets and biscuits, minimum of 4 cans of Pepsi per day... :)

Never been over 10 Stone in me life (constant 9 Stone 12Lbs) and only 5'11"... :)

95% Fat Free body Index... :)

When I was young when we came home from School we were on our bikes no stop from 4:30 PM till 9 or 10: PM each and every day (even more during school holidays) must've averaged at least 30 miles per day (probably more)... :)

Only time I've been to gym was when we were forced to at school, but usually wrote a sick note "from my mum" to get out of that... :)

Quite often walk to Edinburgh and back during the summer months, from my house to the city centre 24 miles so that's 48 miles there and back not even counting the walk around the streets of Edinburgh... :)

Never been surfing, can't swim and the water round here's bloody freezing even in the summer... :)

All done on a good healthy dose of smoking... :)

Nothing "Cool" about it, you either enjoy it or you don't, simple as that... ;)

PS: Gave up drinking over 7 years ago and don't miss it in the slightest, just turns folk in mumbling or ranting nut cases and you can't understand a ruddy thing their gibbering about when they're drunk... (Hmm... wonder what Karlos excuse is then if he don't drink)... :D

@ Franko. Wow! only 5% body fat! I'm impressed even though that's impossible. As i said above muscle stores fat. If you have only 5% body fat you would have no muscle on your body. Make way for anorexic Franko! :roflmao:


I was actually measured in hospital once in 2002 when I had been having trouble eating anything and my body fat index measurement was actually only 7%, so it's not impossible. I was down to 8 stone at the time and hardly had the energy to even stand let alone walk... :)

(95% fat free was a joke, but only just...) ;)

I'm regarded by everyone who knows me as the skinniest person they have ever known. Whenever I'm in hospital and if I need an X-Ray the medical staff often joke "no need to send him for one, just hold him up to the light"... :D

If you pinch the skin on for example my forearm it's only 3 to 4mm thick... aint no unnecessary fat on me... :)

Yummy... thanks Speel you've just given me a new breakfast time treat... :)

Course you haven't lived until you've had an artery choking Deep Fried Mars Bar from your local Fish & Chip shop... :)



We have a saying here that goes "You haven't tasted nothing, until you take it to your nearest Chippy and get them to deep fry it..." :D

Wow... those videos look like they could have been taken from every Scottish person I've ever known... :)

Although in the second one that woman's teeth are in too good a condition to be Scottish... :)
