The only way you can stop smoking is by having the willpower to just stop, if you want it enough you can do it on your own.

Is that the things that produce steam instead of smoke, and have nicotine in the middle of a tube?
One of the women at work has one. Result is that instead of going outside for a fag 6 times a night, she now sits at the desk for 12 hours and puffs non-stop. Rumour has it that when she isn't at work she now smokes more than she used to cos she is so used to having a fag in her hand :rolleyes:

My brother has one and when he first pulled it out and started 'smoking' it I nearly wet myself - that was definitely a Tena lady moment ! he looked so stupid !

One of the guys at work had one. He looked quite proud of it to start with....no one actually p*ssed themselves, although it's surprising due to the laughter.

a friend told me she went to America in the early 90's and was gasping for a smoke once she alighted the plane, she saw a group of guys smoking and asked "do you mind if I bum a fag" . . . few moments of total disbelief from the smoking guys and much laughter !

More recently, someone visited somewhere else in America and visited a friend's grandparents. Once the Granny heard she was Scottish, she shouted 'ooo I love Scottish people, come on over here and put your fanny on my knee' definitely lost in transation !!!!

sorry OP for hijacking thread!
