Due to four of us giving up smoking at the same time (I know Dom has a bit of a head start) I think we need a thread on here where we can rant in peace and give each other support. So Woooo Hooo to the three who have already started - I shall join you when I have my patches and have set my start date - which will be weekendish Very Happy

Course I would. It's me job. Almost literally.

I would have gone for distraction tactics - if someone's chatting, they can't smoke as easily at the same time. Did same when trying to lose weight. That and long baths.
