After reading Pigtins comments about smoking and drinking. Its true if we didnt do it we would be rich,or spend it on something else. I have never took a drink but I do smoke...too many. Its funny you know you are doing your health in but cant stop. What are your bad habits....if any.

None really. I like a moderate drink occasionally, but I suppose I'm quite boring really!
Oh, but I do support Welsh rugby.  |

| I have never smoked, I don't drink very much. I have always spent too much money on silly old cars. |

Don't smoke, very rarely drink but spend probably too much on books, parts and things to restore, (oh - i had better include interests in steam powered vehicles and boats)

You are right there Rick. How long do you spend each day on the forum.

me too, never smoked, before while out with friends etc I used to drink, nowadays though I do not even take a beer!!
However I do spend money on my cars although having a young family and a house loan put a bit of a stop to that too!!! |

I spend most of my money on booze and fags...the rest I just waste! 
Seriously, I haven't smoked for 40 years and I no longer drink but I enjoy rebuilding and showing stationary engines so a lot of cash goes on parts, paint for the engines and fuel for the van. Neighbour thinks that I am mad, but he will spend £40+ on a night out and all he will have the following day is a headache and a thinner wallet, I will have had an enjoyable weekend away in good company!
Now if I had room for a classic commercial then I really would see the cash disappear.
Pete.

When I was working full time (I am an old fogey now and only do three days a week). I used to work with several p*** heads. We used to finish early on Fridays and they would think nothing of spending £60 or £80 in the pub before they went home. Then they would say "How can you afford to run a car like that?"
Since I should have retired and I don't have to go to work I find I quite enjoy it. Whereas when I had to go I could always think of somethig else I would rather be doing. Is enjoying work another bad habit? |

No, if you can enjoy it your onto a winner... I am never happier now I am self employed, no where near as much money coming in, but then hey I enjoyed this year, that's a strange concept looking back at recent ones.... |

I must admit to liking a beer or two, but at 25pence a pint who worries
Here is a photy of my brewery, I am improving my methods of full grain mash Real Ales all the time.
I don't smoke, gave that up 15years ago.
