Mofo Gif A regular dilemma if you're not good at keeping up to date with how fast you get through smokes. The trick usually seems to be find the nearest bit of cardboard to use as a makeshift filter.

I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
