E cig?

I like my e:cig because it is one of the few things I can still get some instant gratification from.

The doc told me to give up just about everything I enjoyed.

If it titillated my reward centre then I had to refrain from it.

My doc is a c*** :x

I've never tried an ecig.
Pretty sure they're illegal here.

Are they illegal? Oh that is a bummer.

I never knew that.

That is s**t.

Looks like it:

Quote:
E-cigarettes are classed as tobacco products under the Tobacco and Other Smoking Products Act 1998 – even though they didn’t exist in 1998, so aren’t mentioned in it – and it’s illegal to display or promote them in shops.

They can be legally sold but it’s illegal to import nicotine into the state, even for personal use.

It’s also illegal to use an e-cig that contains nicotine.

Under the law as it stands Queensland vapers are restricted to nicotine-free options, which means many will end up staying with actual cigarettes – which can be bought legally, of course. On balance Queensland is probably the worst state in Australia to be a vaper in.

So what about things you buy in the chemist to help give up like nicotine patches or inhalers?

Are they illegal too?

What a strange system they have in place in Oz and your state being one of the worst.

It is easy to forget that other countries have these obtuse laws, we have a few ourselves.

You can buy nicotine patches and gum but I've never heard of a nicotine inhaler.

I have got the urge to scatter some more seeds.

Perhaps I will go as far as cutting the grass on saturday if my breathing allows.

But for now I think I am going to put some more plants in.

3 slugs invaded my house last night - I trod on one of them. Yuck :eew:

Hi Ezzy.

Do you have enough land to use a ride-in lawnmower?

Let’s have tea underneath a canopy on your land.

No I don't have enough land for a ride on mower, ha, I wished.

I have a self-propelled petrol mower which can be a little bit too fast for me, even on the tortoise setting.

It's not often I can do this so I get a gardener sometimes, but if and when I can I do.

I will be having tea under my canopy shortly.

You deserve it, Temmy. Hire the gardener. Treat yourself.

Hi Temmy.

A squished slug stuck to the bottom of a shoe is a icky sticky mess.

Hello, all.

I had one of my usual crazy vivid dreams last night, involving dinosaurs [a stegosaurus and a t-rex featured prominently], a princess with a trapdoor under her bed leading to a secret passage, the same princess kidnapping a prince and stowing him under her bed for some reason, the two of them wandering around a forest and encountering death, who gave them helpful hints like 'someone is about to pass very near here' and 'someone is going to light a fire that will burn most of the forest'. Then the prince and princess got captured by bandits.

I'm incorporating a lot of that [except the dinosaurs] into ideas for my new stories. I might be motivated enough to finally start writing them.

This morning, Boo came and sprawled out on my bed, on top of my flashlight. When I tried to grab it, she swatted at me with her paw like she was saying 'Mine!'. Then we played 'grab the pencil'.
