I'm with you there - I'll give up when I want to give up, not when some pc prat tells me. The country has gone mad - our society was created in smoky pubs, getting pissed and having a good time, not drinking coffee in Cafe Nero and worrying what time the gym shuts and if we get our 5-a-day - load of bollocks.Call the cops

I am with you on that SA. I do not smoke but I hate this interference we have to endure from this self serving nanny state.Originally posted by SallyAnneI want to gauge out the innerds of every single person who has had anything to do with the smoking ban, set fire to them, and smoke the ******* ashes IN AN ENCLOSED ******* AREA.Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment

Calm down, dear. It's really a very good idea, and it's for your own health and well being.Originally posted by SallyAnneI cant - it gets me so mad.
I went into town earlier to buy patches and all that sh*t so I could come back from Brussels on Monday as a non smoker...and I got so mad at the big **** off yellow line around the outside of the shopping centre which had in massive letters "NON SMOKING AREA" (even though it's not a ******* enclosed space) that I walked out of Boots and didn't buy anything.
**** them - I'm not ******* stopping. How ******* dare ANYONE enforce such a ******* oppresive law.
**** them all.

I currently smoke, but have been thinking of giving up for a while. Ever since they announced the ban I decided to coincide my giving up with it. Kind of convenient for me.Comment

Well, ok then....lets also get rid of all the pubs eh? That'd be good for everyone's health.
Close all them coffee shops. Stop selling anything that's not fruit, veg or fish. And make it compulsary to exercise 2 hours every day.
Oh and lets not forget the cars on the roads gushing out pollution that we all have to breathe - they should definately go...cause it's all for the good of our health isn't it?

I have never understood why if speeding over 70 is illegal that govts do not force manufacturers to put speed limiters on all new cars.Originally posted by SallyAnneWell, ok then....lets also get rid of all the pubs eh? That'd be good for everyone's health.

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

I've got seven staff who smoke
Fag breaks cost me more in lost man hours due to sneaky fag breaks than the fags cost them.
