Calling All Smokers (following on from below)

[Joe_the_Lion]

I have had a good month, and a few extra pounds that I need to spend.

If you are a smoker, then I will give �100 to the charity of your choice if you swear on something precious that you will quit with immediate effect.

If you refuse to take this offer up then cats may be being tortured as we speak, Old people may be too frail to walk to the shops and dying of hypothermia, even in the spring. Or whatever. Every little helps.

Any takers?

Sorry Joe, I tried to stop on Friday after footy and lasted until after work on Saturday. If it wasn't so fresh in my mind how difficult it is I would probably give it another shot but I'm not strong enough just now. I have always said that I would stop for the benefit of my kids if I ever have any.

I also tried over the weekend. All day Sunday went well. Most of Monday went well. It all fell apart when I visited my local Co-op. I've seen better run village fete stalls!

joe, money donated to charities rarely ever gets to the people they are raising money for, your 100 pound will probably pay for some plants to gussey up their offices
so the telesales people will have something pleasant to look at..

[fayelc123]

Joe, can you ask this question again on the 31st??
That's when i'm planning to quit, i know i wouldn't be strong enough to do it right now, i'd give in but have planned to cut down by 31st & to give up then! That gives me a month to have quit before July 1st!!

[Sasha13]

OK then - I will. Just send the cheque to Sasha's in Need, PO Box 149, London W2 5TH. Cheers! :-)

[Joe_the_Lion]

Fay, if you quit NOW, I will up it to �200, just for you.

[IggyB]

i've not smoked for two and a half days - i'm quite ashamed of myself at how hard i'm finding it to think about anything else... and the flipping gf has managed to leave her smokes sitting temptingly on my desk all day grrrr

[Joe_the_Lion]

Be a man Iggy. Crush the cancer inducing foul sticks up and put them in a bin. Say to your maiden "Listen love, I love you but when I feel amorous and wish to kiss you, your breath smells like a Welshman's ar5e. For the love of life, and the love of me, I insist you cease this foul and downright death-giving habit NOW!"

[browneyedgir]

How will you know if the person who takes this up has been successful or not? It would be easy for someone to claim to have given up without any proof surely?

[fayelc123]

I was just gonna ask the same thing browneyedgir, & how would we know that you made the donation?
I'm doing the race for life in July for cancer research, you wanna sponser me �200 for that instead!?

[Joe_the_Lion]

Trust??

[fran2]

I hate ciggie's. Joe_the_lion. I would'nt know about a welshmans @rse smelling but obviously you do so I'll take you word for it.

[redhead23]

joe the lion - we'll meet again dont know when don't know where

[whiffey]

Quit the bullshine Minter, again and again you drone on about giving money to charity if x or y, but it's never verifiable, just hot air.

[IggyB]

tis true wardy - either my sense of smell has improved or the fags really did make me stink so i didn't notice it on anyone else ...

[fran2]

Joe actually offering money to smoker's as he fears they'll get cancer? Tell me if I'm wrong but, is'nt this the same bloke who wishes cancer on men ,women and children alike?

[Joe_the_Lion]

How charming Dilf.

And who exactly is your mother? And do I care?

Hello Fran, still your cheerful self I see. Ring your nephew, you will need him. Trust me and may my father been struck down with cancer if I am not joking.

I stopped smoking on 25 Feb and can honestly say that I haven't had a cigarette since.

Think i've finally cracked it!!!
