:stoned Cigarettes can make you live till 105

Marie Ellis, a woman lived for 105 years despite smoking nearly 500,000 cigarettes during her lifetime. Ellis died of old age heart failure recently, and was cremated clutching a packet of her favourite Benson and Hedges Gold and flowers shaped like cigarettes on top of her coffin. Ellis, who remained single throughout her life, smoked almost 15 cigarettes a day or 5,500 a year from the age of 15. Meanwhile, the Eaton Lodge nursing home in Westgate London is erecting a concrete ashtray in the garden as a memorial, which can be used by the staff during smoking-breaks.
