Yeah, currently I smoke on average six a day.
I was smoking 40 a day from, I started at 12 and I finished at 59 smoking 40 a day and I was off them for two years.
I was fed up smoking.
And believe it or not, from the day I started them, I wanted to give them up.
But because they're so addictive, it's virtually impossible to give them up on your own.
And then I happened to go to an appointment in a hospital and they told me in the hospital, look, you have to lose weight and you have to give up the fags.
And I was put in touch with a cessation nurse in James's.
And she helped me immensely.
And for two years, I never took a cigarette.
And all I did was I used lozenges, nothing else, right?
And then I was in a position where it was a lot of pressure.
I took a cigarette and I'm now up to six a day.
But I know I'm going to kill that in the next couple of months.
Do you know what I mean?
Oh, yeah.
I've made up my mind on it and I will do it.
But I'm listening to your people.
I'm going to do that, I'll tell you now, on the 5th of May.
That's it.
