That's because they're banned (unless behind the bar where customers can't get at them)

Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos. And none for Castleford Tigers. Bye!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1140.jpg



Quote: Mintball "Tell you what, it's not a brag, but I'm bloody glad I gave up eight weeks ago. And the driving force behind that was the cost - specifically, being charged over £9 at Glasgow airport last November - even though i'm fortunate enough that it wouldn't be a make or break cost.

Stick with it, Minty! I quit about 6 years ago (like you, due to cost) and whenever I go into a shop I look at the price of the fags just to remind myself what a good move it was.

Quote: fargrange1 "Noticed Osbourne did not once utter the phrase " were all in this together ", but all the front bench of millionaires blushed when Milliband asked them to nod if they were now to get a 5% tax cut. Hypocrites
I imagine that a few in the Shadow Cabinet are feeling pleased at their tax cut tonight too.

"Millionaire Ed Miliband inherited a share of a multi-million pound property from his Marxist father, some nifty footwork by him and his brother David allowed them to avoid paying six-figure inheritance taxes. Combining marital assets and his inheritance from his father Ralph, Ed himself is comfortably a millionaire."

'when my life is over, the thing which will have given me greatest pride is that I was first to plunge into the sea, swimming freely underwater without any connection to the terrestrial world' Yves Le Prieur, the real inventor of the aqualung:

You must be an occasional smoker, my granddads were almost black with his Capstan full strength

But, yet again, who suffers most? It's almost as if they're actually saying that anyone who isn't already wealthy or on a very good whack can go swivel.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm in danger of running out of adjectives to describe this lot. I wasn't much impressed with Labour in general (and detested Blair specifically), hated Thatcher etc, but this lot ... Well, their quite obvious sheer nastiness seems to know no bounds. And they're barely even trying to hide it.'"


Hope you succeed. I have never been tempted to smoke, but my wife smoked up until 6 years ago, she tried many times for 'you' or 'the kids', it wasn't unit she decided it was for 'her' she managed it. Touch wood, she has been 'clean' since.

One thing that regularly makes me smile is when she gets a whiff of a smoker and asks 'did I really smell like that' to which I reply 'worse' icon_biggrin.gif

I for one don't care if they are all millionaires, I just want them to pay up without whinging.

Cheers mate!

I had given up previously, for over four years, without problem. But then I had a legacy - totally unexpected - that shifted us out of perpetual working poverty. And I started having nightmares about it all being gone and us being back where we'd started. And that's when is started smoking again.

Let's be honest, regardless of the content of the Budget, there would always have been a 25 page thread on here with the majority of posters whining about it and how the Conservatives are screwing everyone over. somehow.

Cheers mate - seriously appreciated.

I've always sworn I would never do the convert routine and I intend to maintain that.

I don't know how I'm going to cope over the next year after all these disgraceful decisions that that nasty cretin Osbourne has made. He is bringing the country to its knees. ITS KNEES! The Labour chappy would have done a far better job.

Why not? We used to get them whenever Labour were in charge, and you can't really blame the opposition for this one!
