Hi May Company....all still going strong? Time to start thinking about packing for the cruise...it'll be good to see us all on board as the days go by. I've enjoyed the Cafe though, I actually went there last night with my husband, it's a real place that I had in mind when I thought of the Cafe, but it's a pub not a cafe, on the cliff top of the north Cornish coast...My husband, who is a recovering alcoholic for the last 10 years, sat and drank coke and smoked and I sat and drank lager and didn't smoke!!
To have reached this far, I think all the May Company deserve many congratulations and rewards...looking forward to the cruise so much, will see you all there. Lilly

You see, I know that I don't want to smoke. Then again, I think I know that I don't want to smoke but I've started romanticising the times that I used to smoke...anyone else do that? It's a bit like divorce, in that not all of the marriage was bad, just the last bit. Same with smoking, for me not all of it was bad, just the last bit which made me want to pack it in. I quite liked the smell of smoke and I love the smell of a cigar, perhaps it would help if I were revolted by all of those things...you know, smelly breath, hair, clothes, furnishings but I'm not and I would be lying if I said any different. And this isn't addiction talking, this is something I have to acknowledge about myself, I used to like smoking very much and no amount of health education was going to make me stop until I wanted to and nothing's changed about that, I wanted to stop and I want to stay stopped. It's just that some days...and this is one of those days. Am just having a bit of nostalgic melancholy which I know will pass because all the rest of packing in smoking is good and will keep me smoke free. And yes, it does help to write it out...Thanks, Zany.

A cliff top cafe, a nice cup of tea, a panoramic view and the sound of the ocean.....definately works for me, whilst waiting for the cruise ship !

Hi Riverdale Man.
Freedom....no question, and for me that REALLY means freedom because smoking was shutting me down and not just physically through not being able to breathe but socially as well. When I found myself being irritated by my son inviting me out for a meal, as the restaurant was non smoking, then I knew I'd reached my smoking rock bottom and the addiction needed to be beaten. I now feel free to do anything and go anywhere and take as long as I like without the anxiety of having to find a place and a time to appease the nicotine addiction.
