» Your first cigarette

lucky find (no puns guaranteed)
When I was 10, me and a few mates found an almost full pack of full 1980s strength Marlboros (reds of course, lights were a distant girly dream.) 'What a result' we thought! We were the coolest kids I'd ever heard of.

We went to the park, shared them out (about four each) and lit up. Jesus, they were rough as f**k. I swear it put me off for life and I've never been able to develop a full habit since (not for want of trying). Might do the same thing to my kids?
