Surely must be!

littlepow:
Would take it as a prank. Think someone is trying to get away with smoking at there new year party.

strapping young lad:
did anyone see the news when a pub in blackpool got done for allowing smokers to light up...

and one guy came from nottingham just so he could have a pint and a fag!


hmmmm

graham:
Yep saw that on the news was thinking of going over for a pint and a fag  :D

Was over in Portugal this year can still smoke and in Poland a couple of weeks ago same there.  :D

Should of been a compromise on that, there was never a complete ban in the Labour manifesto until the spin doctors got hold of it  :evil:

wellieboot:
In a word - yes.

Defo a wind up.

I agree with this, although smoke in pubs is (was!) a pet hate of mine, why not just create a well cordoned-off area where puffers could imbibe? I can have a haze free pint, they can have a smoke and a cough - everyones a winner.

Whilst I can understand the arguement that it's someones right to enjoy a ciggie with thier pint, surely it's also my right to enjoy a pint minus thier ciggie? I say it is, but the total banning was a bit draconian. Other solutions could have been found (okay, they may have cost the pub a few quid to set up, but better that than have them go out of business!)

I'm rambling again! :lol:
