Crazy .....I stopped smoking over 30 years ago and I still get the craving to have one occasionally

Unfortunately some people do find it very difficult to quit and still get cravings for it,i was the opposite and despite loving a good Cuban cigar i have never felt the urge to go back.Stay firm as you are far healthier by giving it up and i am sure your family would agree.

Regularly, I stopped over 10 years ago but I attend the races every Saturday with a group of smokers and it is very tempting.
I think if I weakened I would never give up again !

Stay strong mate.

Stay strong mate.

I’m wondering if at my age it would really matter ?
I dont have many vices left, don’t drink anymore, don’t smoke, have a regular punt and I’m not exactly being knocked over by the ladies ( unless your rich not a lot of demand for old guys) !
Or maybe it’s because I’ve been married going on 50 years. Dream on old timer !
🤣🤣🤣
