I Grew Up In a Smoke-filled Home

Well.....kinda!

I spent my first couple of years of life living with my mum, a very heavy smoker, and then, from around 5 years of age onwards, I stayed with dad who didn’t smoke.

From 13 onwards I spent time between them both, as they were separated, and that was fine....

I think, because of just how glamorous mum was - and is - and her smoking that just made me want to start up too....

Ashtrays, near overflowing, were always in mum’s house. I rarely seen her without a cigarette either in her mouth or between her fingers.

All that cultivated my love of smoking, of the smell of cigarettes and of being a smoker myself.

In the eighties my parents, and nobody in my familie smoked. They were anti-smokers. Nevertheless I was attracted by the smell. But I was afraid to be caught so I never tried even one cigarette. That's why I started smoking at later age when I was 22 years old. I quit in 2012, thought it would be for ever, but restarted smoking this summer, about 3 months ago now.
