On the subject of bus shelters
aren't most of them next to an erm.. road yeah that was it where there will be -- traffic yeah thats right and doesn't this oh.. traffic give out much more pollution than some poor sod just trying to have a crafty fag before they go to work.
it is these non smokers who did lobby for the removal of smoking in public places which they do not go into nor did they ever.
these non smokers are probably the same people I see jogging up and down the road who will no doubt be eating up tax payers money by the time they are 40 because they need to get new knees?
I am a smoker - I still go to the same pub - I actually have no problems going outside to have a fag - what does then annoy me is when some garlic breathed numb nut with poor bodily hygene tells me that I 'stink of fags'. At least I don't stink of tulip you pointless beard stroker.
which gets me on to another point - in the past if you walked into a pub early doors it would have a not too unpleasent smell of stale smoke and disinfectant with maybe a bit of air freshner
Now they all stink of stale farts......
I know that one of the reasons for the introduction of the ban was on the gorunds of health and safety to protect the staff working there - becuase the non smokers who were told not to get a job in a pub if they did not like the smoke said it was discrimination and so the workplace has to be acceptable for all.
but yeah - the people who lobbied to stop smoking in all public places are the main cause of the demise of the local.Comment

I would also welcome a tax on Fried Food being sold in public places as well.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment
