Cigarette Smoke

Will the upcoming smoking ban reduce pub attendance? I actively seek no-smoking pubs. I drink at pubs daily. I eat at pubs every opportunity I get. I hate cigarette smoke. I find it rude when I am given the choice: breathe in other people’s smoke, or leave.

Roll on July, the no smoking ban, and getting home smelling of something other than other people’s acrid smoke.

  1. I actively seek smoking pubs. It’s a cultural thing, socializing and smoking goes together.

  2. While I’d agree smoking makes you more social at the office, or a party, because you end up meeting other smokers. It’s simply not true that smoking and socialising go together in pubs.

  3. All the smoke is my least favorite thing about Europe.

    My hometown (Columbia, Missouri) recently had a smoking ban and apparently the hickville where I live now (Kirksvile, Missouri) may follow suit which will surprise me. Of course, it surprises me that the UK and Ireland has banned smoking in public.

    I read today that the EU may ban smoking in public. This would be great.

  4. Fool. If you dont like the cigarette smoke in pubs then dont go…When you go to a pub you should be expecting smokers to be there. Sure its not nice if you dont smoke..but hey, thats what pubs are for..smoking, drinking and socialising.
    Its one of the longest running “traditions” on earth if youre that bothered sit indoors and cry all your life.

  5. Actually pubs are for socialising. Anti-social wankers like you shouldn’t be welcome in them.

  6. I did say “smoking, drinking and socialising” = you fail.

  7. I understood what you said, I just disagree that smoking is any part of what pubs are for. Most people agree with me. Enjoy being the minority.

  9. What browser? As almost all browsers nowadays store the previous page’s input contents. In fact the only one I know that doesn’t is Internet Explorer 6.
