I was out in the beer garden last night at one of our local pubs. I noticed several young people drinking beer seated at a round table, they were all in their early 20s. Everyone of them was smoking.
When I began smoking in the 60s, we knew it was bad for us but there was no where near the media campaign that there has been since that time. Why are our young people taking up the bad habit of smoking? Do they think it makes them look grown up, just like we did? It is so disheartening. I can only hope they see the light and don't smoke for a long time and take the health risks that we took.
