Lucky thing I won that bottle of Dekang the other night or I would probably have been back on the smellies tonight!! Rush home knowing my kit is being delivered today, I find a parcel with the bottle of Dekang on the mat and one of those red slips saying the kit is at the post office, I rush down there only to be told that it is closed!! The annoying thing is that I have taken cards down there in the past after closing time and they will go and get the parcel but not today > So without my freebie Dekang the choice would have been 16 mile round trip and £££ to buy some more e-lites or smoke rollies from the pouch on the mantlepiece. Topping up the carts is doing this flavour no justice at all I am sure but it will get me through till tomorrow when I will use some excuse to get off work earlier and collect my Riva. Thanks again FOTT....lifesaver LOL Pam

Timing is everything and you got the good and bad in that. Your winnings should really be tasting like nectar though.

Those red cards are sooo annoying. Even worse when the post person just shoves them through the door without even bothering to knock as they can't be bothered to wait. >

I avoid any seller who insists on Recorded Delivery, I dread red cards > So glad you got thru, Pam Wow, Anne! That sticker is almost worth me firing up my printer

Well done Pam, how blummin frustrating > You're doing so well, but don't worry if under extreme circumstances you do have a rollie, especially in the beginning when you're still trying to sort out your kit and invest in back ups

BTW, not sure if it's just local but I got a card through the door from the po stating that as from next month they would try to leave any parcels etc with a neighbour, there was a number to ring if you wanted to opt out!
I just thought, 'ok, back to the common sense good old days'!

To be honest I think I would be sick if I smoked one now, if I go into a room where my other half has been smoking the smell turns my stomach I follow him round with a bottle of febreze He said he will give up after the holiday as being banished from the sitting room every time he wants a fag is annoying the hell out of him hehe! The baccy is there as a comfort blanket only, I got half way across the yard at work today and had a minor panic as I realised I didn't have it with me...how stupid is that!! Nice to have the support of so many people on here.....thanks guys and gals

I gave all my baccy away (and I had a LOT) after the first 6 days when I decided to go 100% vaping. Am so weak-willed it was the only way for me. That probably wouldn't do you much good though, Pam, as your OH is there with smellies to hand over

I've been cig free for over 7 months with a hubby who still smokes in the house! Part of my failure rate with my other quit attempts was because Mr K was still smoking, so easy to just pinch one or have a couple of drags. Personally, i've found quitting easy this time, i've turned into one of those terrible ex smokers. i cough and splutter and open windows, then get annoyed as his passive smoke interferes with the taste of my vape We're off to spain in October, there will be big arguments when he wants to spend what I would consider probably the cost of 2 Provaris on duty frees >
