  1. Well, there you go. Quick as a flash - two years passed. Whenever someone needed a friendly word. Whenever someone needed a friend in their corner - along would come Marti and post the right thing. Whether it be an encouraging arm around your shoulders or a foul-mouthed rant at the injustices of the world - Marti always says it straight. Many people here, past and present, owe their quit to her wisdom, her empathy and her care (and in my case simply fear.) Marti bumbles along, dealing with more in a day than I do in a month - and still has time to help. I'm a couple of hours ahead of the UK at the moment - guaranteeing me the chance to be the first to raise my glass to the mighty Marti - Smarti, the Aylesbury Tornado and the best quit buddy that anyone could ever ask for. Marti. A brilliant two years. Two years of massive change, upheaval and growth. Well done you. CHEERS! ...and thanks very much ;)
  2. To many here, Marti is the gentle caring veteran, always with a kind word. A soothing presence. To some, who visit the cursing thread, she is an imaginative cussing machine. Some will remember when she was a nervous quitter. Fighting every minute of every day. Leading her fella and even her Mum into non-smoking. To me, she is the quit buddy that is always there. Happy 18 months QB. You rock. Gnarly old veteran now....you can officially say "those were the days...."
  3. One year. 12 months. 52 Weeks. 365 Days. 8,760 hours, 525,600 minutes. 31,536,000 seconds since my quit buddy Marti smoked a cigarette. 11,000 cigarettes not smoked. Well, we think so, anyway. Quit tickers are temperamental things at the best of times and in the hands of Marti, they are nothing less than mysterious riddles. But it has been a year or so, trust me. :-) There was a time that every single second was a fight, a victory. We lived out the ferocious battle blow by blow. There was a time when it was all Marti could do to focus on pouring her life and soul into her blog, focusing on anything but lighting a cigarette. (Not read her blog? Go Do it. Now. I’ll wait.) Back? Good. Gradually - she realised that her posts helped. That her empathy gave people hope, gave them encouragement. When someone struggles, when someone wants to cry, Marti is there with a tissue. When someone needs a smile, more than anything else, they read Marti in the “Cursing thread”. The word ‘Twunt’ is, I am certain, going to be included in the Oxford Dictionary very soon. As seconds, became minutes, became hours, became days; Marti realised that not only could she do this quitting thing, she could do anything. I watched the confidence and self esteem bleed into her. Day by day the power of the quit seeped into every aspect of her life. I have watched a grey insipid smoker blossom into the powerful inspiring young woman that was always there, hidden under a cloud of smoke. There are days where Marti faces and handles more ‘stuff’ than I do in a month. Then goes to bed, gets up and does it all again. As a quit buddy - she is immense. She knows when to nudge me and when to leave me - but if I need her? She is there. Thanks QB. If someone is reading this post and can honestly say “I never read a post from Marti that resonated with me” then I tell you this, you need to read some more. Thank you for everything that you do. The fella, the girls - even old cranky are all very proud of you. Im honoured to know you' So, Marti you effing twunt - welcome to the Lido deck. White wine for you love?
  4. Well, knock me down with a feather! The Aylesbury Tornado has only made it three quarters of a year. No, really. I know her girls, her fella and deep down (very deep) even Old Cranky are bursting with pride. Super-Mum, Full Time Carer and soon to be Reiki Master - Marti writes incredible supportive posts and tries to help every one of us on this board. She also writes some of the scariest rants...she and DD would, in time of war, be our secret weapon! Way to go Marti - you are an absolute star.
  5. Hang on to your hats, the Aylesbury tornado has 7 months smoke free! Fantastic work Marti. Inspirational, funny, kind and caring! Oh and a bit of a nutter. You rock!

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
