That was the point I was making Frankham. The right to smoke doesn''t mean a right to smoke in a room where other people have to breathe it.

In pretty well any bar these days, I suspect, and in any session, most of the people would prefer it if other people weren't smoking. Why should people who feel like smoking take advantage of the tolerance of their companions? It's not exactly difficult to pop out for a smoke. Just a matter of basic good manners really. Live and let live.
