I've seen patients from the cancer wards at Hull Royal Infirmary standing outside having a smoke, so there's no guarantee just visiting one would work.

That might be your opinion, but I think you'd need to produce some evidence in order for it to be taken seriously.

And no, you certainly don't need to smoke to get cancer, but it increases your chances massively.

Same reason as anyone does anything risky, like sport or driving fast or jumping from planes or whatever: it's enjoyable.

here here, hope the OP is successful.

Though as an ex-smoker, I still like the smell of other people's cigarettes. Strange, I know.

As for giving up, it's easy. I've done it four times now. :lol: Though the last snout would have been about 9 years ago.

Decided not to go with champix my sky cig came last saturday and started using this so far so good not touched a proper cig now for 4 days :) Just eating more :)

I stopped using skycigs over 6months ago after using them for a year. Not sure if they've improved since with the launch of their new range. The batteries only lasted 1-5months. Also when buying the packs of 5 cartridges it was guaranteed that one would be broken or leaking. I even got a pack where 3 were totally empty. A friend of mine moved on to Nicolites that you can get in shops and online. He said they were better and didn't leak.

I moved to the bigger vaping kind from liberty flights. A bit more fiddly and they require cleaning. But you can monitor your nicotine intake with them.

Got to agree the batteries dont last long 2/3 hours most.But did you know you can top up the cartomizers yourself once empty :o .Done two of my empty ones with bubble gum e-liquid and they work great,also been doing some research and the Nicolites you mentioned actualy fit on the skycig battery :D .Plus got e-lite cig too and i topped that up with my bubble gum e-liquid and thats fine too :thumb:

Will be saving loads of money now i know you can top up the cartomizers yourself without ordering new ones all the time.

And by the way on my 9th day without smoking im :shock: myself ive got this far

With the batteries i meant they stop working totally within 1-5months. I wasn't sure how far you'd gone with the vaping adventure, so didn't want to get too technical. I did read someone asking about that topping up the cigarette type cartridges and everyone responded negatively to it with skycigs ones. I still have all the kit, so i might try it out next time. The larger kit does have a lot more battery life, which last days and can be charged and used at the same time.

Well done, everyone says it's the second week that counts, but i found it was exactly the same feeling two weeks later as the first day.
