As I raced home from work to finish spraying a table top not stopping for tea(or maybe to get half high :eek: ) I wondered if I was addicted to woodworking -I'll rephrase that wondered how addicted I was...........
so here's the question what is more addictive
a) woodworking
b)nicotine
c)caffiene
d)sex
e)any combination of the above
I've been married for so many years now, what's sex?
You forgot single malt :mad:
Booze & at least 3 of the above.
Its when the missus aint there, and you surf the sites. :DQuote:

Nicotine and caffeine are aquired habits and the hardest to break; caffeine is the only thing I can't kick. Woodworking and sex are as natural as breathing, they're not vices and I don't have a problem. Shut-up, I do not.
I'll drink to that...... ;)Quote:

I gave up the stinky habit about 4yrs ago, I thought it was going to be hard... lucky the SWMBO was on a tour of europe for 2mths while I did it!
I use those Zyban tablets and found it quite easy, even when OP smoked infront of me.
Good on ya, I went cold turkey about 24 years ago.Quote:

2 friends, both into their 50's gave up with it last year, not a problem but, one of the blokes that works with me went on it & he was real crook, came out in bruises, lost weight, would go home for lunch & come back 2 days later.... he still smokes.
Well Duhhh, how do you do woodwork without a vice.???Quote:

Combination of nearly all ...not a smoker ,gave up over 25yrs ago but still partial to a good cigar but and only if with either a Bushmills or Good Red or a real good brandy. :D
Not habit forming these days ...er the cigars that is ...but the others weellll lifes too short to deny one all the finer things in life and I totally ain't seen the light YET:eek:
