WE have lots of ad campaigns against smoking, and it is almost illegal in this state. Somewhere in OZ there is a attempt to ban smoking on private balconies. The pollies don't seem to care about stopping alcohol though. I guess that is because booze is free in parliament. (a national right)

I ran to chocolate when I wanted a drink the other night! No Worky
I think I am addicted to booze because a few days without and I am grumpy and miserable. Feeling a little better today though. Funny I didn't seem to need booze so much when I was smoking.
