Hi to anyone who reads this , I am approaching 60 and have smoked 40 or so cigarettes a day for all of that time . Despite a few half hearted attempts involving nicotine patches,chinese alternative therapy , hypnotherapy etc.the only time i ever quit(for all of 3 weeks) which involved Champex ... i won't bore you with that story and it ultimately failed. A few years have gone by since any attempt and i was intrigued by an entry on an ebike forum i belong to . I had not heard about vaping - ecigs etc. i rarely watch the tv. so had not seen any adverts Then this ebike thread came up .
The ebike forum thread has had about 5500 views and many contributions maybe about 100 replies (I am sure a number may be on here) and has been a very popular thread obviously many closet smokers/non smokers found it informative
Myself ..... now been tobacco free for 3 days and just starting to get a sense of taste/smell back , amazingly with 2 Vision 1100's on the go menthol in one and flue dried int'other I have had no desire to resort to tarbacco and hope that remains . Just looking forward now to vaping some great products &healthier,wealthier,wiser
Alan

Hi Alan, welcome to AAEC so pleased that you found vaping! many of us were total tobacco addicts, but miraculously managed to give up due to e-cigs! Don't hesitate to ask any questions

Electric bike it certainly is,the only common link with me (virtual baldy) and Wiggo is he has 2 unpowered wheels and I have 2 strands of frizzy hair
