I gave up smoking because I do not like wearing cheap white trainers which seems to be the uniform of the smokers who stand puffing outside of pub doorways.

A bye product of doing this is that my singing voice has improved no end. I shall never be a 3 octave Orbison, but after a lifetime of growling out the pub favorites, I can now sing a sweet ballad when the occasion arrises.

Don't smoke, you know it makes sense. Nat King Cole smoked to get a distinct sound, but what a price he paid.
