Daithi & Jockser give up the fags.

GerryC · Dec 20, 2007

Met Daithi this week and he's up for it.
Spoke to Jockser on the phone last night and got the distinct impression he's up for it also.
I seem to be a ref of some sort.
Have had one PM offering to send cash.
My suggestion is that there is no need to send cash now.
If they fail - and I hope they don't - I'd have to send cash back.
Your pledge is fine with me.
If you come up short in the end of the day I'll not be shy of posting that here - but that won't happen, you are honorable people.
I'm putting €100 for each man (€200 in total) on the table now.
The boys are putting money down and will loose it if they fail to quit.
The rest of us only pay if they quit the fags - appropriately enough on Apr 1st.
The cash will be split between St Vincent De Paul & ISPCC.

So Daithi & Jockser - the best of luck to yis and ye wont be letting us, the needy or those maltreated kids down, will ye? :eek

The rest of ye put yizzer cash on the virtual heap; just be clear on what your putting per man because one might crack - the other will then be the cool clean hero.

One things for sure; they want to quit & a lot of you fine people out there wish to help them and the charities.I don't see any losers in this; except the fag makers.

One final thing & I know I'm not in a position to preach but could ye refrain from off topic excursions on this. Pledge the cash and allow the lads give updates on how they are doing in the new year while encouraging them to cost you your money; simple really.

Thanks to you all - in anticipation - for getting behind this. :bow

.

Have a great old Christmas y'all. Ho! Ho! Ho!

F*ck me....when you actually think about what you are doing by lighting a cigarette and inhaling all the poisons, one wonders why people do it all......but maybe the problem is the thinking bit...... :blast

"The Easy Way to Stop Smoking" by Alan Carr

Good luck! Being an ex-smoker is great! You'll wonder why you were so silly for so long.
Remember you're not "giving-up" anything you'll be freeing yourself the chains of addiction

This book may be helpful:
"The Easy Way to Stop Smoking" by Alan Carr
It has helped many (I can think of 5) people I know to kick the habit - permanently. Will-power necessary too of course.

It would be good if you could Aidan, fingers crossed for ya.

I've decided to follow in your footsteps, I've signed up for the Gym
at work and I take a 3/4 hour brisk walk twice a day, oh, except
curry nights.

Feeling better already, looking forward to the agonizing
pain across my chest and down my arm going away and the clear lungs. :thumb2

There are no upsides if you don't.

Wayhay, we're gettin' very posh now. What other Smoking Cessation attempt can boast having Royalty involved

I was off them for seven years and went back. :blast

Still thinking about it though.

(RIP) petcul · Dec 22, 2007

Here's wishing you all the best of luck :aidan

I'll keep my fingers crossed for all of you.

Just shows what a bit of motivation can do :thumb2

Now that you've gone public that should really help!

I gave up years ago when all my Christmas presents were cigars. It slowly dawned on me that the b@st%rds were trying to kill me so out of spite I never smoked again.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL

PS Aidan you can do it and besides standing outside the pub on your own with all the others talking about you inside would only lead to paranoia.
