Heh - smoking does make you look cool, that's a known fact.
My other half has wanted me to stop for years but she's also admitted (while drunk) that she likes the smell/taste of it on me now and again. She's a doctor too for fucks sake (albeit a clinical psychologist, not a GP).

I miss smoking, that first fag and pint was bliss.
Plus sneaking out for fag breaks pissing off the non smokers.

Smoking after a meal and a pint is the absolute tops.

A few airlines let you smoke up until a couple of years ago, probably some domestic flights in a tutti frutti dictatorship where you can. Japan loves a bit of indoor smoking, a real disconnect with the borderline national paranoia over health to see smoke filled stinky restaurants everywhere. I can’t stand fag smoke, I grew up in a smoke filled house. It stops me taking my kids to see my folks tbh, the fact they get through about 40 a day between them and the walls are yellow Can't you just ask your kids not to do it around them?

As an ex smoker I still enjoy the odd ciggy when I’m out drinking. I don’t do that often enough to worry about lapsing back into the habit and I can’t imagine the 20 or so cigarettes I smoke a year are doing me too much harm.

Yeah that's pretty much where I am. When I'm out with my old mates once every 3 or 4 months I'll smoke for that night and then not think about them again. They are fucking delicious though.

Smokers coughs and wheezy laughs should be enough to put anyone off. Fuck knows why you'd want that late in life. My dad got to the point where he'd literally cough until he was sick in the morning amd then light up after, ffs

My mate just got her British citizenship. What’s a good gift I can get her to mark the occasion?

All jokes to one side, if she likes tea and you want to make a gag about being British, a tea gift set would work.

The desk toys, not an actual police man or dog.
Unless she's into that kind of thing.

Have a work event where there dress code is smart casual. I hate that term, it's so nebulous and vague.
Shirt, smartish trousers and jumper it is.

Ashtrays are still in the toilets as well.

When you click new, it takes you to the last point you read, not the actual last post. So you read to the last post without realising that it's a page break. Doh!

Still haven't learned how this works, have you sausage fingers? Jabbing away and now here we are, page 1 of the thread. Using up precious time reading the wrong post. Yup
