As you are an ex Smoker I for one wouldn't wish you to have to put up with someone smoking next to you if you are in the correct establishment, before the ban most Restaurants set aside tables for smokers/non smokers.

Being a smoker however I am no longer given the freedom of choice as to where I go for a ciggy, even though smoking is still legal and I am of a legal age to smoke.

I used to go into busy pub's shared by both groups, now most pubs struggle to make a living, let's all be allowed life choices, you can still choose not to enter smoking pubs and I should still be allowed to mix in a social atmosphere with fellow smokers.

There was supposed to be a great storm of non smokers taking over pubs where are they? Still at home drinking their cheap ASDA cans? We only see them on sunny days out on the benches we used all winter and then they have the nerve to complain!

Who kept the pub open so you can still join us?


I'll give you a hint, "Cough, Cough, God it's cold out here, pass me a non smoker I can warm up next to, what do you mean the pubs run out until summer?".
