Dropped in for a drink this afternoon to the pub I frequent; all the regulars seemed to be there, and just as many irregulars. Outside a small bunch sitting on the steps smoking and chatting. All of us getting a bit of fresh air, whether we were inside or outside.

Any smoker who stops going to pubs because of this must be a bit of a nut really.Sorry skipy, but honestly I just can't see where the problem is.

It's just a shame it took a law to get people to behave in a way that a little common courtesy should have been sufficient to achieve.
