I reckon Im 27 years off alcohol and drugs now (I have started to lose count).

Currently nearly 4 weeks off nicotine and am contemplating if it is too early to start smoking cigars (I want to become an occasional cigar smokers, not a nicotine slave).

I am nearly 4 weeks off nicotine.

I would like to start smoking the occasional cigar.

Should I give it a go today?

Or should I give myself more time?

Was very excited to see the Waverley (last seagoing paddle steamer in the world) chugging her way down the Thames.

Waverley was Clyde built.
