It depends on the habits of the users. I've often 'filmed' in pubs in the morning before opening time - much cheaper that way. And they all stink. Not noticeably of smoke either - usually stale beer. -- *My designated driver drove me to drink Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

The new law will only bring smoking into line with this. Ah. So it won't be enforced, then? I'm sure it won't be completely, but it's a lot more enforceable than the drink-related stuff, and even that is a lot better than nothing. Cheers, Colin. |

It depends on the habits of the users. stopping you from smelling nasty lavatories is one of the worst excuses for smoking i ever did read. It wasn't an 'excuse', I don't smoke - I don't like smoking. But, it is a fact of life in some pubs that tobacco smoke masks the smell from the toilets. If smell-masking is all fag-smoke was ever doing for us, I guess Air Wick could single-handedly save the post-ban situation for us all... "For us all"? Are Airwick going to produce cigs that don't produce any smoke then? -- Steve - www.digitalradiotech.co.uk - Digital Radio News & Info Find the cheapest Freeview & DAB prices: http://www.digitalradiotech.co.uk/fr..._receivers.php http://www.digitalradiotech.co.uk/dab/dab_radios.php |

"Steve" wrote in message ... Now before you all flame me, I'm not a smoker and never have been, but I find this unbelievable! From the middle of this year, there will be a total ban on smoking in public places. No pubs or clubs can even have a smoking room for people who fancy a fag! most smokers tend to be in total denial - they refuse to accept that they are drug addicts. So is everybody that wants a cup of tea or coffee in the morning to perk themselves up, but somehow they don't have the same stigma. as such they should be glad they can indulge their habit anywhere - That has to be the most idiotic thing that's ever been said on Usenet, surely? they shouldnt be able to rub our noses in it anywhere. You were going to get your no-smoking pubs, so you would've thought people like yourself would be happy. But oh no, smoking pubs shouldn't be allowed because the Nazis don't smoke. a decent next step would be to make it illegal for those with children to smoke at all and a total ban on any public smoking. I'd prefer a total ban on Nazis, personally. -- Steve - www.digitalradiotech.co.uk - Digital Radio News & Info Find the cheapest Freeview & DAB prices: http://www.digitalradiotech.co.uk/fr..._receivers.php http://www.digitalradiotech.co.uk/dab/dab_radios.php |
