Woohoo!

Didnt notice any difference when it came into effect in Wales, probably won’t notice the difference now it’s in effect in England.

But then, I’ve never had a problem with people smoking…

But Dickie, you live in a house with smokers, not a house with asthmatics… I’ve already noticed the difference in smoking-free bars and it’s much, much nicer from every point of view. Unless you’re a smoker, that is, but who are they to complain about civil liberties?

Lived, not live (they’ve both given up, hopefully).

Smoking just isnt something I’ve ever had that much of a problem with, so I’m pretty unconcerned by the ban. The only reason I think its probably a good idea is because it stops bar staff from having to breathe in a smoky atmosphere for hours on end.
