Thanx for your support.I actually gave up for 3 and a half years on the day of Princess Diana's funeral.I went to a petrol station and bought 20 marlboro which i'd smoked for 9 years>got in the car and thought "i'm giving up"threw them in the glove compartment and did it for over 3 years.I dont believe in all these patches and things.Willpower is what iot takes but it's like having a little demon constantly knocking at your door.You can never escape it,just learn to tell it to F*** Off.

Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
 

and if the title said "non smokers should not have an opinion if an adult smokes near a child" would that be a dig at non smokers??:confused:

Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
 

To smoke or not to smoke..............hows this one for a silly example.
Local golf club with 2 rooms, a members only room, and a main function room (which can be hired by non-members)
A member of the council states that he will not bring his wife and child up to the club to sit in a smoke filled room.
So the council make the members only room non-smoking - result members walk out and go to local pub, hence loss of bar revenue.
Oh the council said, well we will have a referendum and ask the members which room they want as a non-smoking room, you guessed it the members voted to make the main function room non-smoking.
Oh dear say the council what about the socials and private functions that use the room, they will not book it if it's a non-smoking room - result - loss of bar revenue. So the council dicide to put the referendum to one side for socials and private functions !
The silly part about all this is that this particular council member, never brings his wife or child to the club.
All those problems, could have been overcome by allowing smoking in the members only room, and a specific area (adjacent to windows) in the main function room. Away from the bar and small dining area. They call it good old common sense
Sorry about being long winded. :D

Smoking is like anything else in this life, you can either take it or leave it, your choice.

The next ciggy might kill us, but hey, so might the next bus that comes along, or the next plane that falls from the sky, or or..........get the drift he he he:D .

Living life does us damage all the time................how many things have there been recently in the press 'oh don't eat this, don't eat that, don't drink this, don't drink that, even medication is bad for us now :eek: .

So to put it bluntly we are all up S'''s creek without a paddle. From the day we are born, life is getting shorter.:rolleyes:

what i,m on about boo is the word PUNISHABLE in the title,to me burgalars/ thugs etc you punish, ignorant thoughtless gits that smoke infront of kids should be EDUCATED. most smokers dont have a problem keeping smoke away from kids,and find it just as offensive as non smokers.like i said before just seemed to me like a soft target.
