they didnt have us in their pubs to ask as we couldn't go in there
as to back on topic i agree
no kids should ever have to put up with second hand smoke that should be the over riding freedom here
it doesn't bother me i have to wait till i am home and not planning on going out again to have a drink ( and i do like a red wine

)
and if it ever got to the point i couldn't wait for the next glass i would consider that i had a real problem that might need dealing with
no one is stopping any one smoking just where they can
