chris m8, your obviously serious about giving up the smoking, just a thought like, but a once sponsored a m8 to pack in, he ended up raising a over a thousand pound for the freeman.
just a thought like, but if you did, a would certainly sponsor you.
set a time scale, say, 6 months or a year, have a think........!

it was the first week celebation mate,i got a bit shakey on sunday night after a pig of a day and was desperate for a smoke,our lass god bless her counted the money and doubled it and told me to treat myself,saving starts this week

That explains it then Chris! Well done, you deserve a reward for going a full week! it must be one of the toughest and hopefully easier for you from here on int!!!! Good Luck!!!

im n touch with afew lads about doing the ireland ,lands end stuff to john a groats and a few bits in between,ive got ideas for the sponsorhip and perhaps a few articles in the local press if you pm me your e mail i can give you the stuff ive put to people like local radio theres also other things up me and our lasses sleeve that i want to get into for the biggest of big adventures,the aim at the moment is to get me off the tabs,ive got a year to do stuff,i want to get something off the ground where we meet lads around the country who have given up,chucked the money into a jar method and paid for a fish and there lures,its amazing how much it adds up,nhs direct are running a thing at the moment,where you can get free nicorette patches as long as you can prove your definetley off the tabs,as far as i am concerned the more brains the better,ideas for the charity thing are welcomed,if we can get a bit of national courage,christ knows what could be achieved for a worthy cause(plus the lads giving up the tabs)cheers chris

guys dont take this the wrong way if you have suffered a loss lateley but yes i was catering for a funeral wake with an elvis tribute turn,it was in the guys will,alot of drunk people,the traditional fight(sausage rolls and vol au vents all over the place) i dont know if your a psychic mr turbot but in the mass catering trade a cremation gig is wideley known as a hog roast,so technically speaking in a philosophical way you are correct in your assesment of these various mass catering related matters

lol chris I knew that about the hog roast my sister was in the trade

Daiwa Kenzaki they snap as well mate

Have a look at the sonik sk3 12-20lb class, for £59-95 they are excellent value and are a delight to use. For a reel, plenty older style Penn ones on Ebay, they are mostly bullet-proof and need very little maitanance.
