During the day, when I’m at work, I use an e-cigarette, but absolutely refuse to refer to it as vaping. In the evening, when I’m at home, I smoke roll-ups. After I’ve eaten, I usually have a cigar. I’ve been thinking about taking up pipe smoking, but don’t know how I would manage to fit it in.

Go cold turkey like I did and give up entirely. Not easy but worth it
I once stopped for nine months, but that was a long time ago. As I’ve got older, my appetite for cold turkey has diminished considerably. 
Oooh it’s years since I smelt pipe smoke and watched someone do ‘The Ritual’ of filling up the pipe and tamping the baccy down before the sucking and lighting. A couple of relatives smoked pipes and I found it fascinating.
Tell you what Haribo, upload a video of yourself (with smelly vision) doing ‘The Ritual’ and slowly and relaxingly having a puff. You could dedicate a day to that can’t you in the Christmas Hols perhaps? Or take a day off work 
Or you could just stand next to a bonfire and inhale that instead, would that be better? 
That sort of suggestion should not be put to one as easily led astray as I am, Pesta. 
If I could do it instead, it might be better, but I would more likely do it as well as, Mups.
Damn and blast. Stamps foot. Spoilsport 
:-p
Can’t you think of anything else I shouldn’t do that’s not quite so bad for my health, Pesta? You’ve made me feel that I’m letting you down.
Smoke all three at once, that should solve the time problem.
You are
Actually, it’s four: E-cig, roll-ups, cigar and pipe. Perhaps I could adapt the inlet manifold from an old scrap car to make a device for the purpose. 
Well if it’s any consolation, my conscience will probably keep me awake all night.
I said it would solve your time problem, not my maths problem. :-p
Excellent! More smoking opportunities. :-p
When it comes to giving up smoking, everybody is different. Some go through the pain and go cold turkey. Others have to try all sorts of substitutes or treatments. It’s a very personal thing. It’s just a matter of finding the one that works. I gave up smoking at age 26 when I finished university. That was 42 years ago. I went cold turkey. I was lucky. It worked. But it is my humble opinion that actually smoking something else other than tobacco to quit it is not the way to go.
Filthy habit - give it up!
Took me about 3 years to get the need to have a smoke and stop even thinking about it
Yes RS that is pretty much was it was for me too. It’s around about the average I reckon…
It must be awful to be so addicted and so expensive too…i would try give it up if I were you Harbal, think of all the cash you would save and the health benefits.
