Re: smoking and the pub
As I was coming home yesterday I noticed at a couple of motorway service areas that Cancer Research UK has put stick-on adverts on every restaurant table top 'in celebration of the lives that will be saved as a result of Scotland's public smoking ban'.
The law comes into effect on the 26th of this month - less than 2 weeks away - and I can't wait. While I was away I visited a smoke-free pub for the first time. It took me some time to work out what was odd about it, and then I realised I could see right across the room clearly, with no pale grey fog of fag smoke hanging in the air. And at the end of the evening my clothes didn't stink.
They have started leafleting homes to remind everyone when the ban starts. I may have mine framed. Finally the majority can have a night out without coming home stinking and full of passive smoke.
