I sometimes used to notice my index finger nail turning a bit brown, but it never lasted long. My friend is terrible - she smokes roll ups - her hands and teeth are stained really badly - yuck - and she has an awful cough all year round - she is 35. Her poor little girl has asthma and their flat and all their things absolutely reek of smoke. I never smoked in the house, so my kids never had to suffer it. Maz. XX

Plus with roll ups there is nothing to stop the small strands of tobacco going down the throat, you only have to look at the filter on a cigarette. James

No, I musn't tell a lie - I do cough - when anyone uses too much aftershave or perfume. Must be because I smoke! :-))) Don't worry, not getting at you James. Love ya really :-))

To all smokers - never smoke past the print on your cigarette - that bit between the filter and the print is where all the rubbish is and where the danger lies. When I was smoking people used to remark at the length of my 'stubs'. However I worked for a tobacco company years ago and this was one of the first things I was told. Ann
