Neither.
I wonder if he cares for smoking?

Tell me Gary, have you discussed your psychosis with a professional?

Taking instructions from a photograph cannot be good for you.

It is worth noting that there is a very distinct difference between "talking to" and "talking with".

Garys circumstance, if we are to believe him, is that a photograph instructed him to draw a flawed analogy.

Admitting that you have taken instruction from an inert object such as a photograph is very considerably more psychotic than having a one way conversation with something / someone.

My mother was walking past smoking a fag at the time and I had a bit of a brainwave kind of moment.

Yes. tablets, tablets, and more tablets.

Or to put it another way - he's making it up as he goes along....

In the spirit of Gary's debating technique -

Even though the anti-social side of smoking wasn't the reason behind it being banned?

Gary, there is no need to be embarrassed or ashamed of your mothers ethnicity. Cultural diversity and tolerance is something which many of us celebrate and encourage. You are free to speak your mind (or, in your case, anyone elses mind) within reason.

I think everyone was getting a bit confused as to where you were taking instructions from and I'm sure I speak for many of the adults on the board when I thank you for clearing up any confusion.

I for one support your stance of stating proudly and and in public that you acted on her instruction and, to be honest, I think your mum is a bit of a looker.

Now, what are your mums thoughts on people wanting to ban the burkha?
