Out of curiosity, I wondered how much a pack of 20 say, Marlboro Reds, costs in OZ???

Seeing first hand what smoking related lung cancer can do, I admire anyone that gives up smoking. You go for it and see how much money you save. Good luck Sam |

To be honest about that question Bixie, its the fags without question. If I choose to eat a Big Mac then its only my health I am affecting. My friend told me that she grew up in a house where both parent smoked around the kids and she was in an out of hospital with smoking related respiratory problems. |

Not sure on Marlboro as when I smoked and was in Aus I wasn't fussy on how I promoted cancer in my body and would smoke anything lol. Now being a very good person I no longer smoke and I haven't since I got back to UK from my Aus holiday around 16 months and counting. Honestly would stop before you leave if I were you, too much to adjust to out there without the stress of stopping smoking!!! ;) |

Well they've banned most illegal drugs yet still people get them.... all banning things does is drive things underground and make them more attractive to the addictive personalities among us (I'm one of them, but am resisting just about everything apart from chocolate) |

From 1 January 2005, the following areas are no-smoking zones: · within 4 metres of an entrance to a non-residential building · within 10 metres of children’s playground equipment that is ordinarily open to the public · between the flags at patrolled beaches · at artificial beaches (i.e. Southbank Beach, Brisbane) · at any of the major sports stadiums managed by the Major Sports Facilities Authority (i.e. Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane) · in at least one-third of the indoor area of liquor licensed premises and at least one-third of all poker machines. The final phase of the reforms will come into effect 18 months later (on 1 July 2006) when the whole enclosed area of liquor licensed premises must be smoke-free. Non-enclosed eating and drinking places where food or drink is provided must also be no-smoking. And a good job too I say! I really would suggest just quitting now and not later. Best thing I ever did for me and my family. |
