    Good God ...that would get you to Thailand and back three, YES 3, times a year.

    I calculate my annual spend on tobacco is around €1650, the cost of 1 trip to Thailand. So I think you're exaggerating ever so slightly, gerefan

    I just calculated my annual spend on cigs, and about $1000/year. Not cheap, but not expensive either.

    Really stupid way to slowly commit suicide though. Really need to stop.

    I plan to stop smoking round about the time I quit drinking.

    With me, it's somewhat the opposite. If I stopped smoking, I would have to start drinking. No choice.

    Think you misunderstand. What I am saying is that you can buy 3 return tickets per year to Thailand for those 1650Euros. Cattle Class. If you go Business then of course you,only just get one ticket.

    I assume you travel 3 rd Class.

    My calculation was the total cost of the holiday - flights, accommodation, booze and boys.

    Yes I thought so, but not what I said initially!

    Yes, gerefan, I see that - but what would be the point of having 3 tickets to Thailand and no money to spend when I'm there?
