Remember many old war movies were JOE Had took some lead !!!!!!!! in the battle field :eek: Know way back for him...........Last request Joe what can we do for you....................A ciggy lads zippo of course ???????? :eyes: W.T.F. Regards lads Terry.
Some how I do not think that the cigarettes that we used to smoke are anything like todays ones because of all the genetic modification and chemicals that they have put into them. As has just been mentioned the promotion for them in the old films was huge and I know an old salt that was in the Merch during the war told me that they would sit in the mess smoking one fag after the other to calm their nerves. We often had a chat at work about it all. Can you imagine the stress levels that those poor buggers would have had without them.
On a serious note can you believe stuff like this ever existed my how times and attertudes have changed Regards Terry.:confused:
If we where to believe all the BS that is thrown at us we would.
Getting up early to jog around the block
Come home and eat a slice of toast with a glass of water.
Spend the day out in the garden looking after the vegie patch.
Have lunch of fresh vegies from the garden.
Go for a long walk and do the shopping but only buying organic ****.
Go for another run around the block.
Settle down to dinner of the smallest piece of meat you can find (no not that one between your legs) with steamed veg and a glass of water.
Go to church and give thanks to some idiot that has just had meat and four veg along with a few glass's of scotch only to be given a sip of wine and a slab of paper.
Go home and have an early night to do it all again the next day.
Not for this little black duck I can tell you. If we where to listen and do what they profess we might as well give up being human and just be robots.
Much prefer waking up in the morning knowing that I am going to feel a lot better once the hangover has subsided. Not waking up knowing that this is the best I am going to feel all bloody day.
I think that a lot of seamen smoked during the war ciggies was very cheap from the slop chest if my memory serves me right we paid 1 shilling and sixpence for fifty cigs or two shillings for a tin of tobacco I can remember oneof our guys in the pow camp gave is rice away for a smoke he sure gave up smoking
I gave it up some yr ago Cigs, roll ups, pipe,loved them all, until the day I got a dose of the flue that put me in bed for a week, I felt that bad if the devil had knocked the door I would have gone with him.
When I got over the flue, said to my self, no more smokes, from that day on, food tastes great, the sex life improved,and I could run for the bus.
Give it up brother and all will be well.
Graham, as you began this post some time ago I was wondering how things are going. Pulled all your hair out, bitten finger nails to the quick, put on weight, climbed up walls. Besides all of that hwo is it now?
Graham. I was a very heavy smoker started at around 13 years of age all through my Merchant Navy years and when later in the Police Force, I was in the CID for 18 years it was an occupational hazard in that job, (40 a day was not a problem) but around 1972 my wife who also smoked to a grip of me and said we have to stop smoking, I had never tried before. We both went an an accupencturist and each paid £8.00 for the treatment.Quote:

It was the best £8.00 each we ever spent.
Why not try it its worth a go and best of luck.
