There will, but not as bad as fags, or highly unlikely to be.

I tried the vapes when i was going off the fags and i fucked the whole lot in to the bin after one day, the expensive pen, the juices, the whole lot. About 200 quids worth, my lungs were in a hoop after a days vaping, more so than a few years of smoking amber leaf rollies. Cunts of things

Thatā€™s nuts.

I have heard people say that there is 600 pulls in the average vape and youā€™d go through one on a single night out. Its non stop.

Their throats do be fucked the morning after.

Vapes are pretty much a nicotine delivery system. They are apparently getting stronger and stronger. The nicotine probably wasnā€™t the worst of over 1000 chemicals in cigarette smoke, but was probably also the most addictive element in cigarettes. Itā€™s been difficult to ascertain exactly what does what in cigarette smoke.

Did you ever smoke a fag or vape ?

Iā€™d vape a bit the very odd time that I am out, low content nicotene, and I donā€™t find it the worst. Essentially, it is to delay me smoking as the will power wouldnā€™t be great after a 6 or 7 pints.

I donā€™t think vapes are as common as being made out here. Most younger people in their 20s who are interested would buy or share a 20 box and have that for the night rather than vape. Wouldnā€™t touch a smoke then until the next night out.

Most of the younger people.im seeing in that demographic are lashing the flavoured vapes out of it. Lads who donā€™t and never smoked, ripping into a shared vape at the pub.

Itā€™s gas actually, its rare you see younger heavy smokers these days. At match the other day, the prop came off and immediately horsed down two fags on the sideline. Meanwhile, replacement prop got injured and before heā€™d even put out the second fag, prop 1 was called back I to action. Rare you would see anything like it these days thankfully and vapes play a positive role in that.

No not really. I tried smoking when I was a young fella but couldnā€™t take to it.

Did you ever hear of popcorn chest

I loves an oul amber leaf if im out for a few pints.

I avoid the fags now until im hammered on the rare big night out and im luckily avoiding the urge after so can stay off them.

If i was going out as regularly as i was in my 20s i wouldnā€™t have a hope

I know two people in the seventies who both gave up smoking after 40/50 years. Both had long stints in hospital and fairly bed ridden during their time. When they came out they didnā€™t bother with them anymore.

Im struggling with the cigarettes lately. Admittedly its the cost that is helping me not smoke but the day comes I break and I hoover 5 or 6 and then itā€™s a couple of days to get rid of the pack. Once upon a time Iā€™d give them away not anymore.
Vapes are silly womanny oul yokes.

My mother stopped smoking about 35 years ago.

Sheā€™s 85 now. Last couple of years Iā€™d be out in the house and Iā€™d notice a smell of smoke. Sheā€™d taken to having a cheeky smoke now and then up in the bathroom. Like a teenager.

None of us have said anything and sure why would we. At this stage they wonā€™t be what gets her.

It depends who im out with. Thereā€™s certain people id have a smoke with. A couple of college mates in particular and 2 of my bros. Myself and mrs J used to have a fag at the back door if we were having a few drinks in. Thankfully that habit is gone.

would you not tell her to smoke away by the fireplace or something rather than having her up in the jacks :smiley:

none of my pals smoke any more, thereā€™s one lad alright on the rare occassion we get out heā€™ll have a pouch and itā€™s fucking impossible after a hape of pints to say no when he is rolling up

Ah itā€™d embarrass her I think. Itā€™s her thing so let her at it
