"Last night was brilliant, I can't feel my eyebrows. You should have come, you'd of at least lost an arm."

I had a great night out. Lots of vodka, damning Bob at the possibility of gayness and having people laugh at my monkey feet. I lost a bet to scale a lampost though, damn insoles stuck to my feet.

It was a leaving do for a lass at work. I wish I'd gone out drinking with her more often

When I came home I saw my bro', went straight up to him and hugged him. Completely surprised myself and him, I think. Overwhelmed is the only word I can think of to describe it. Then we stumbled upstairs, both as drunk as eachother and we talked. He apologised to me and we hugged, both a bit tearful. I still don't trust him and don't think I will do completely for a long time, but feels good to have sorted some things out.

I woke up at 10 and thought it was still night time, bucketing it down outside. Woke up again at quart to 3 feeling and looking like death.

Last night was meant to be when I had my last cigarette too.

I've just given in.

Family's family, no matter what you've gotta' love 'em!

quitting smoking is easy, I do it every night, its the not starting again bit when you wake up thats difficult Well, as they say you can't choose your family luckly I seem to get on with most of mine <smiley. though I'm sure they all talk about me behind my back, and are probably responsible for the wheelie bin keep moving, and ... and I'm sure they keep telling everyone I know that I'm paranoid <

I've heard loads of people (including RF, I think) recommending the Allen Carr book

I recommend the Allen Carr book.

I also recommend the RF action plan to stop smoking:

1. Don't buy cigarettes.
2. Throw away all your ashtrays and lighters and boxes of matches.
3. In the event that you find yourself in possession of a cigarette, do *NOT* put it in you mouth and do *NOT* set fire to the end of it.

Happy to hear you and your brother have broken the ice

I'm beginning to wonder if I'm ever going to stop smoking I just don't have any desire to at the moment - and the part of my brain that knows that's stupid just isn't loud enough.

The thing is I don't really want to stop yet, I enjoy having a cigarette even though I know it's bad for me.

You need some sort of large distraction to spend your money on rather than a box of 20 little distractions
