Last week I enjoyed the BBC World News on PBS, a particularly fascinating piece about Turkey, quintessential land of smokers; an aerial view of Istanbul might be blocked by cigarette clouds.  OK, an exaggeration, but Like what you're reading?

    Hi Jim.  I think you nailed it on the head.  Smokers think that if they quit they wont have any fun.  I know that is what i thought.  I would have to give up my friends and my favorite haunts and my consolation - but that is another story.  Of course it is funny that I never thought I might have to give up my life as a result of all my fun.

     

    So get ready all you I'm-almost-ready-to-quit-I-just-need-one-more-reason-to people and take the plunge.  We are waiting for you and it is true what they say about blondes and non-smokers, we do have more fun.

     

    All the best, sue
