Well done, Andy!

I think this calls for a special RFC TFH award - well, not really a
TFH - it's actually a TFR. #16 is all yours:

Bravo!

And have a look around the house.
You probably can see out of the windows ( assuming of course,that
they've been washed in the last 4 years)

Good for you. I quit in July, 1994 after seven days in ICU after my
second major heart attack. Suddenly I had no more urge to smoke. It was
a miracle, or I suddenly got smart. <VBG>

Congratulations, Andy- My hub & I just celebrated 1 year yesterday. We
had tried many times, and used the gum as a crutch. I got mad about
that monkey on my back, so I went cold turkey also. I'm really glad
about quitting, but not too happy about weight gain!
