I am not a cigar smoker who has the —˜packet habit’. That term may not mean anything to you, but it’s a symptom of cigarette smokers’ behaviour. They have that little packet out of their pocket with great regularity and out comes another coffin nail. Cigar smokers tend to …

Sometimes I worry about …
