yeah I do, though we are rather outcast nowadays, although I never go in pubs anyway so the ban in them hasn't effected me. Laughing I did try and give up a few years ago using patches but I couldn't get a good drag out of them Laughing

It's odd but when i'm at work I don't even think of having one, and when, very occassionally I do go in a pub it doesn't bother me there either, but as soon as I get outside I light up....it's just a habit really, but I enjoy it, much to the disgust of my sons who have never smoked.

No, my sons have never smoked but my daughter does, although my younger son loves the smell of them and hated it when they banned smoking in pubs, he said he would rather smell fag smoke than stale beer and BO, good job he likes the smell really as his partner (our Emma) smokes.

Hi Wolf:  Candy koalas?  Lol.  (Sorry, I couldn't resist).

Lyn and Lyn, my husband still smokes and when we go somewhere that he can't smoke, he goes outside to join the other "lepers" as he refers to them.

You can still get candy cigarettes in Texas, BTW.

LOL Ruth, I know how he feels stood outside with the other "lepers"

I think you can still buy them here but they are now called candy sticks and not cigarettes, they no longer have the red at the end they are just white now.

Well if you ever find yourself really craving the ones with the red ends, let me know Lyn, and I'll have my sibs send me some that I can share with you.  I brought them back from my last trip over there and gave them to my coworkers, and oh, boy, did they have a field day with them.  I work with a buncha clowns!  lol
