OT Cigarettes
Mrs Pounder Esquire has been smoking snouts for 53 years.
Three months ago she got one of those e-fag things. After two weeks she stopped smoking it, she no longer needs a snout and would not bull**** me. She gave the e-fag to me. I have been a very heavy smoker for 45 years, and I LIKED it. I've not had a snout for six weeks and do not want one. There is a pack of unopened snouts in the house. Shirley this must be worth a try? |

Did the e-fag just make you realise how pointless it all was? My Mum smoked 20-40 a day from the age of 14 till she was 60, when she simply said that she couldn't afford it now she'd retired. No recidivism, no apparent craving. Maybe like her, you were never really addicted, it was just habit and perhaps a little belligerence. Mind you, she still died of lung cancer, which was very nasty.

Cheers Don't under estimate the chemical addictiveness of nicotine. I smoked for a few years (bad habit picked up in the JobCentre - everyone smoked inside and out). Anyway, gave it up for nicotine nose spray (potent hit that sh*t) then later those little tabs you stick by your gums (not gum, gum is weak). Then couldn't give that up - used to get very tired, grouchy and the rest. Anyway, had my hernia op and they said "no food, limited water and no sucking anything, not even those nicotine thingies - and no coffee". Needless to say I had a massive headache by the time I saw the anaesthetist but she fixed that by running the analgesic in before the knockout juice. I made a conscious decision that as I was going to feel ****e anyway, I might as well do the cold turkey and that worked. |

If you smoke and want to give up then anything is worth a try. Presumably if there's no tar or any other harmful by-products then they must be an improvement. The range of flavours seems a bit confusing though. "A wide variety of flavours are available, including cherry, vanilla, strawberry, chocolate & blueberry etc" I've seen a kiosk in a shopping centre with bottles containing maybe hundreds of flavours. I gave up 30 years ago and never miss Virginia, from smelling it in other people's smoke. But I used to smoke a lot of Turkish, Abdullahs, Balkan Sobranies, and cheapies made by a small London firm called Morris. Nothing to do with William Morris. Now all forgotten. Except the Sobranie brand name on upmarket Virginia. If they ever came out with a really authentic Turkish - flavour - then I'd certainly be tempted to take it up again. michael adams .... |

There is, but they still cause a degree of irritation to the throat, etc. Too soon to know about long term effects. But hopefully less harmful than smoking tobacco.

Although I smoked ordinary fags (Silk Cut) I've settled on menthol to vape. Not tried every flavour though. Just none at first then tobacco flavour. Pal was using menthol and I liked it, so have stuck to that. -- *How does Moses make his tea? Hebrews it.* Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

Don't intend to give up the fags cos I enjoy them, but I already feel better due to the lower levels of tar etc. I bought one of the slightly up market ones, to half heartedly give it a go, never having even tried to stop in 50 years. I dual fueled for a few weeks, down to maybe 20% of my usual consumption. The vaping then just took over completely, no will power no effort - it just took over as being much cheaper and more pleasant generally. Not had a ciggy in 10 months now and consuming 3p's worth of liquid per day. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.co.uk |

I gave up the roll-ups 5 years ago because it was becoming just such a faff standing in doorways in the rain like some bloody vagrant. Can't grip a pint glass without craving a fag though, so pretty much stopped doing that too. Can't say I feel any better for it.

Mr Pounder Esquire used his keyboard to write :
Mrs Pounder Esquire has been smoking snouts for 53 years. Three months ago she got one of those e-fag things. After two weeks she stopped smoking it, she no longer needs a snout and would not bull**** me. She gave the e-fag to me. I have been a very heavy smoker for 45 years, and I LIKED it. I've not had a snout for six weeks and do not want one. There is a pack of unopened snouts in the house. Shirley this must be worth a try? I gave up my 30/40 a day 'habit' using an E-ciggy 10 months ago. It was as easy as falling of a log. I swapped my 30/40 a day, to the equivalent of around 10 vaped per day. From that I deduced that rather than being adicted, it was nothing more than a smoking habit. It was my first attempt to give up in 50 years of smoking. Since then, I have persueded another 10 to give it a go and all arrived at the same conclusion - it was an habit, nothing more. I also advised the use of something a bit more upmarked than the petrol stations and supermarkets sell. My vaping habit now costs me around 3p per day. I also derive much more enjoyment from it, than I ever did from smoking. I've always been pretty fit and healthy, no issues at all and I have not noticed any difference since giving up. What I have noticed is that minor scrapes and long standing minor problems clear up and clear up now faster - which is suggested to be a result of the increased oxygen in the blood. A really bad heel blister repaired itself in 3 days last week. A prominent large age spot I have had for many years and becoming more prominent on my forehead, suddenly disappeared in the past month. Patches of long standing rough skin, cleare up in the past month. So stopping has certainly been noticed by my body. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.co.uk |

Just look at the flavours and packaging of the stuff on sale now and tell me you think that they're not trying to hook kids in. But the fact that you can get these things with varying grades of nicotine, including none at, all opens up all sorts of possibilities. The assumption seems to be that people only ever smoked at all before, because they were addicted to nicotine. But if that were the case then presumably everyone would be happy smoking just any old rubbish - as admittedlt some of the king size virginia filters undoubtedly were/are. To some people at least. But maybe some people just like smoking for the sensation of breathing in flavoured smoke. But because nicotine has always been present in tobacco its been impossible, up to now, to isolate the two components. Maybe breathing in nicotine free strawberry or chocolate flavoured vapour may be a pleasurable experience in itself. Which isn't to say that it isn't an advantage to be selling something which contains an addictive substance like nicotine to anyone. However if that were the only motivation, then with so many players in the market, and with relatively low start up costs, none of them could be sure that in fanning that addiction they weren't simply increasing the market for their competitors. And so to maintain market share all the players would either need to engage in price cutting, or as in the case of illegal drugs resort to shootouts in the streets. michael adams .... Tim |

Tim+ laid this down on his screen :

Just look at the flavours and packaging of the stuff on sale now and tell me you think that they're not trying to hook kids in. Might be best to read the researched statistics on kids taking up vaping, or even adults, before spouting such rubbish. Vaping is even less attractive than smoking ever was to kids. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.co.uk |

You can get different strengths of liquid - and devices which deliver a different level of nicotine per puff. If you do want to stop more easily, you'd gradually reduce the dose. As you'd do with patches. Same as trying to control drinking, but perhaps more successful. Just look at the flavours and packaging of the stuff on sale now and tell me you think that they're not trying to hook kids in. But you can buy nicotine free flavours. -- *Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
