A no smoking forum?

Hang on, so because of Dictator Blair you cannot go out without fear of being assaulted?? IMO the fear of being assaulted has as much to do with a much greater awareness of crime than an increase in crime.

is it not b liar and his party that makes the law and what do these idiots get a slap on the wrist and told not to do it again great deterrant i think not.

Surely if he was a Dictator he would have banned youths from being out after dark. Also the banning of smoking was a cross party thing. Most MPs regardless of party voted for it.

How do you know if the curfew aint coming next and i never said he passed it i know it was an all party thing.

Is it any less safe for women now than when the Yorkshire ripper was on the rampage?

yes i think so its one less idiot on the street so has to be a degree safer.

I'd like to be free to go into a restaurant or a pub and not have to breath carcinogenic smoke. In fact it's an infringement of my civil liberties that I have too.

you are free to go into a resturant or any pub you are fully aware that there is people smoking in these places and that you breath in carcinogenic smoke but you still choose to go in them so you are putting yourself at risk many restaurants banned smoking over a year ago and some have smoking and non smoking banning smoking isnt that an infringment of a smokers civil liberities too.

What you actually should be saying is 'I was happier when I was living in blissfull ignornace of the health risks of fatty foods and smoking'

too right i was matey, i could not smoke, drink, i could take regular exercise eat healthily be the fittest person alive but that dont eliminate the risk that i could be hit by a bus tomorrow or wrap my beemer round a tree we are all given a number and when its called it is called, so i say live for today not the future

i couldnt agree more with you ;when i was a smoker i used to tell peaple that hadnt smoked the same and guess what'they didnt belive me

i smoked 40 red malboros aday and i didnt want to stop 'i just said thats it ive had it with these things and i stoped there and then 'and for the next week of life i just took each hour as a bonus that i didnt light up

and yeah it was hard lol i could have killed anyone that was near me ;but you just crack on with it and pack inn

before anyone says iam one of those reformed smokers ;then you would be wrong

my girlfreind smokes around the house/car/me 'and it doesnt bother me one bit because i just think back to how i felt for the first 4 weeks of stoping

i still dont want to see a ban but it looks as if nothing is going to change it

perhaps lounge bar for all those fit healthy non smokers;and perhaps the bar side for guys and gals that want to have a good ciggie????

surely thats not asking to much is it? 

You know, "they" say that if you give up Smoking, Booze, all food bad for you, and do exercise - you'll live longer!

WRONG!

It just seems longer!

Don't suffer from that though I plan to quit before I do.... Mebbe this year

Peter thats a queston that cant be answerd as you are talking of the future, i cannot see into the future mine been hairy not crystal, but as for living for the moment you must agree that every day to us is a bonus, as you dont know if youre going to end up with your liver been pickled due to drinking, we all have a choice in life and you choose not to smoke fair comment, but you do choose to have smoke inflicted on you by going in a smokey pub may not like it but its the truth
