Good on you!
I'm chain-smoking as I peruse the board and I really need to stop. Would you be interested in a sort of mutual support thread?
I've tried before and failed dismally and hubby is no help whatsoever. He stopped about two years ago and is the most sanctimonious nag on the planet. When I mention hw long I've gone without a ciggie, instead of encouraging me with a "well done", all I get is "That's not very long, I've managed x weeks/months/years" or the even worse "You're doing it the wrong way, it'll never work. You have to do it my way".
I managed to stop for a week on nicotine patches, but when I asked my hubby to pick up a new supply when I was too ill to get them myself, he refused, saying he hadn't needed them, so I didn't. Result? I was back on 20 a day within 24 hours! I was also considering divorce

Scotland
We've had a smoking ban in place for a couple of years. The way the law was worded, it meant that it was illegal to smoke in the smoking shelters which the gov put up for when the ban came into place. Apparently the sides were too large!
The idea of a hubbymuzzle appeals to me greatly, I might gag him with one of my unwashed socks from my lastest mucking out stint at the stables.
