It isn't a flame Daz, People who don't understand the ratings system panic and click anything. Ebay sellers love people like this.

Even Spitfire didn't rate it negatively. Karma

I read the first page, Then got bored.

I got a Club, I like it there, And to be honnest, The smoke dosent really bother me while im there drinking with my mates etc.

BUT, I get home, I get to bed. And I wake up the next morning and EVERYTHING smells of stale fags.

Its not nice.

Ok to a smoker, You already smell like a Stale fag, and your breath stinks like an ashtray. So it dosent bother you lot.

But its Fucking wrank to a None smoker! Sick

I think that clubs and pubs should have smokeing Rooms (or outside)

I dont see how there going to enforce it in working mens clubs ect, but i do agree with it to an extent.
If im in a cue waiting, the most anoying thing, other than waiting in the damn cue in the first place is some old bint blowing her fag smoke into my face, i know have a lung full of second hand smoke, i thank you.

As for clubs and pubs ect, i belive it will make people short temperd, drunk people like to smoke more in the first place, when you tell a drunk person that has an addiction, they cant feed it, there going to get angry.

Now you have a short temperd drunk on your hands.

I don't smoke and dislike the smell, so as a general rule I don't go to pubs which smell. Simple, really. If I want to spend time with people the majority of which smoke, I put up with it; if I go out with people the majority of which do not smoke, I expect the same in return. Dead simple. I like being able to talk to (or rather, drunkenly ramble at Wink

) people so I don't go to really noisy clubs. So simple even a simian could figure it out.

I sort of benefit from the smoking ban, I suppose, but it feels like the same sort of benefit you get from stablisers on a bicycle. Confused

Ah well, when people can't even carry a printer through an office for "health and safety" reasons I guess I should be grateful that I can still leave the house at all.

1) DO NOT SMOKE.
2) DO NOT GET IT IN MY FACE IF YOU DO.
3) IS THIS GOING TO TAKE A LONG TIME?

I think that the rules should be left more or less as they are at the moment. I don't smoke, never been interested/tempted. I have many friends who smoke, and while I don't like smelling of their fags when I meet up with them, the pleasure of their company far outweighs the smell! Likewise, when I go to a pub I don't like the smell, but again, its my choice!
I think that if a pub/club wants to allow smoking, thats fine! In most pubs there are designated non-smoking areas - ok some smell drifts across, but its a negligible amount, so why not stay in the non-smoking area? It seems to me that we as a society feel the need to control every minority in the population, just so we as a whole feel better!

[url=https://archive.thisisgwent.co.uk/2004/09/02/57776.html] maybe they're already anticipating people giving up[url]

Someone mentioned taxes, etc. going up as revenue from smokers drops Neutral
