Re: Fags out.
 

I don't smoke......I only smoulder, and that depends on who I am with ! No, serously.....I don't go into pubs very much these days because the smoke affects me very badly.....sore eyes, sore throat and a runny nose the next day. I feel sorry for those folk who want to have a smoke with their drink, but eventually I think smoking will be something that is permitted in the open air or in your own home.

Re: Fags out.
 

Hey No, serious stuff, yep I smoke but always respect someone who don't. On the pub thing, yes agree to no smoking at the bar. Most places do have smoking or non-smoking areas, or should have by now. Have been over to America several times, now there's a place, full of overweight smokers. but on my last visit I found that it's been banned in shopping malls, and other public places.

Think it's all about respecting other peoples rights, the right to smoke if you wish, or the right to object to a smoke fulled environment.My local golf club raised this at our last AGM, and agreed a compromise, you can smoke in this area, but you can't smoke in that area, which I think is a fair decision.

Re: Fags out.
 

That is Ok as long as the areas are well segregated.......otherwise it is like saying you can only pee in this bit of the pool........

Re: Fags out.
 

Lol, think it would be the smokers that were going for a pee in the small bit of the pool.
Respect everyone rights, if you do that you can not go far wrong.

Re: Fags out.
 

l'm suprised at how many of us are smokers in here!
You do feel a social outcast nowadays, perhaps quite rightly. Even in a cafe were smoking is permited, l do feel guilty and never enjoy it unless all the other tables around me are puffing away as well.
Right thats 21 drinks and 14 rainmates, l'll get 'em in then.

Re: Fags out.
 

As a non-smoker I don't enjoy eating a meal in a restaurant if smoke is wafting over from elsewhere. It spoils the food.

It's a bit different where pubs are concerned. I don't find it as off putting in that context although I don't really enjoy the smell of stale smoke that I wake up with the next morning. It sticks to my clothes and hair.

Re: Fags out.
 

good ime fed up of all these feeloaders inhaling my smoke for free when i got to pay for my ciggies :D


i am curently in the process of giving up but even when i was a 40 a day smoker it pi$$ed me off when other people smoked when i was eating

smoking in bars should not be banned they should be made to install air conditioning

theres currently a no smokling bar if i am correct , used to be called millers a long time back near the railway station

smoking in bars has been there for years so if you dont like it seek alternatives

how far exactly are europe going to go with this ...?

are the famouse pub dog pictures going to have the cigretts removed from their mouths

Re: Fags out.
 

They have had this system in NZ since about 2003 and it works quite well. Smokers tend to go to the designated smoking area outside the pub/restaurant. There are ashtrays and usually some form of shelter provided. However, the weather is usually warmer than ours, although it can rain a lot..:( I'll miss my fag with my drink in the pub, but I will probably smoke less if I have to keep getting up to go outside. That's one more mac for you to get Garinda.:D

Re: Fags out.
 

That won't solve the problem; it will just give the illusion that it will.

All air con does is recirculate the air. I heard that in places where air conditioning is installed, people were off sick more because the germs were circulated everywhere, so everyone was at risk of infection.
