The day I gave up smokingI was never much of a smoker, and probably got through no more than half a dozen packets of the ponciest brands available to man in my entire life before finally kicking the habit altogether.
The day I decided that I was no longer going to be a slave to nicotine, I was sitting in my car, staring at a part-smoked packet of Marlboro Lights. On a whim, I got out of the car, and pressed them into the outstretched hand of a well-known local derelict, who I had spotted working his way up the street checking the gutter for dog-ends.
The tramp smiled at me through a nicotine-stained beard, and opened the packet to inspect his bounty, thanking me with words I shall remember all my days:
"You've smoked some, you fucker."
There's no pleasing some people.
