My dad was from Lincoln, and my mum from Glasgow. They immigrated to Canada before I was born. I always heard cigarettes referred to as "fags" or "ciggies" when I was growing up. Because yes, in the earlier years they both smoked. Whatever we call them, they're just not worth it and glad you have decided to give them up, fagashlynne.

Hi fagashlynne, I'd say that the first 36 hours are the most difficult, physically - so congratulations!!! Welcome to the SSC - you'll find all the help and support you need here.

Thanks, Phil! I KNEW you from the UK Fagashlynne. In the US your screen name has a TOTALLY different meaning :p Our UK buddies keep us informed of your 'slang'; the US keep people up to date on our 'slang' and our Canadian buddies throw in a bit of French to keep us on our toes! We have folks from other countries as well (Greece, South America, South Africa...) We are an interesting and diverse group that has a whole lot of FUN :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/8/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 47 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,371 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $376 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 4 [B]Hrs:[/B] 21 [B]Mins:[/B] 5 [B]Seconds:[/B] 55
