Having been smoke free for 2 years now I can unequivocally say that fags are pointless, shit and moronic.
Agreed. So are cigarettes. |

A former pub landlord who is thought to be the first person in the UK to be jailed after flouting the smoking ban is "devastated", his wife says.
Nick Hogan, 43, from Chorley, was sentenced to six months in prison for failing to pay fines for smoking ban breaches at his two Bolton pubs.
Hogan was found guilty of breaching the smoking ban in January 2008 at the Swan and the Barristers pubs he ran.
His wife Denise said the couple "never expected" he would be imprisoned.
The original hearing was told that on the day the ban came into force he organised a "mass light-up" in the two pubs.
He was fined £3,000 and ordered to pay £7,136 in costs.
Mrs Hogan, 53, said that following the conviction her husband lost his job and was unable to keep up with the £125-a-week fine payments.
He was jailed on Friday by magistrates in Bolton.
Mrs Hogan said: "He's not a smoking campaigner or anything like that.
"He didn't want to change the law, he just thought if people wanted to smoke it should be their choice.
"We never expected him to go to jail. He hasn't harmed anybody and he isn't a criminal.
"He was allowed to ring me from jail last night but we could only speak for just two minutes. He is devastated."

I feel sorry for you. Everyone should smoke for at least 10 years.

I prefer Cigarillos. Cigars are the real deal.
I've never bothered with cigarettes.

Does London have a tram?
London had a tram in the 50s or something. The last ever tram took off from Woolwich. |

Walter makes a compelling contribution to the argument. Does London have a tram? |

New tram systems and extensions to existing tram lines have been discussed or planned:
* Tramlink extensions linking the Croydon-Beckenham route from Harrington Road up Anerley Hill to Crystal Palace, using an existing rail right of way. Previous schemes have considered extensions to Purley, Streatham and Tooting[20]
* West London Tram from Shepherd's Bush to Uxbridge. This scheme was "put on hold" after the approval of Crossrail[21]
Two more tram systems were planned but their development has been abandoned[22]:
* Cross River Tram linking Kings Cross and Camden to Peckham and Brixton[23]
* In the lead-up to the 2008 Mayoral election, Ken Livingstone has proposed an Oxford Street Tram that would run along Oxford Street from Marble Arch to Tottenham Court Road. It would be tied into plans to pedestrianise Oxford Street and Marble Arch, funded through property development. Construction would begin in 2012 with completion in 2018
