Sorry I'm late. But I hope I am not too late to wish you MANY MANY CONGRATULATIONS on your first 6 months. It does get somewhat easier from here on in - this is really the BIG milestone. Fabulous.

You just start your own thread on the "Forum for New Users" for example, and call it (title it) "DJ's Thread" or whatever you fancy! Click on "start new discussion" at the top left of the page when you go into the "Forum for New users" and you write a title and a message and I'll know where to find you in future.... I went looking for you in the message-search and there were very few threads started by you but many posts to other people's threads... that's why I say start yer own so I can see how you're doing when I come on line right away!!
Hiya, Grin and thanks!
Theresa! You're a great poster (you have a way with expressing yourself) and a great asset to the site!!
Hi there Jan! great to hear from you and to see your 6 months is up-coming shortly!!

Congratulations to you!!!! 6 months is a wonderful accomplishment.
I would also like to applaud you for all the wonderful things you do here on these threads.
In all honesty, if it weren't for you in those first few days, I would not have the 30+ day statistics to boast today. I know I went kicking and screaming, but with your help, I stuck it out! so a heartfelt thank you for that.
I'm sure your success will be everlasting. Your conviction and dedication have proven that.
I hope your coffee is the most tasty cup you have ever enjoyed!
Regards and Thanks!
Theresa

A big heartfelt "congratulations" Patrick. Your posts have been very important to my quit. I'm another 50 year smoker. All aboard for The Ring Of Kerry. My Milage:

Ron: What I wouldn't give for some real Kona! But I'd have to drive 100 kilometers and then buy several kilos to justify the trip and then, with the gasoline costs, it might well work out at $80 a kg!! Great idea!
Jim, Mike and Camelless and Kelly and Terry: It's a great journey in your company! Thanks...

Hiya, Lilly! I was born and raised in Dublin (Cluaintairbh). Yes, I'd love to see those photos of the Ring of Kerry. That's where my parents went on honeymoon in 1933 and I still have the photos of those little micro-climate regions there with palm trees and lush tropical ferns... we went to Wexford for summer holidays in those days (sneaked Boston cigarettes in Courttown!!) not at all as exotic as Kerry!
Well done with those stats yourself!
