as a smoker i can understand non smokers annoyance at some peoples attitude to smoking in enclosed areas but surely common sense should prevail where legislation conflicts with the rights of individuals. my belief is that there should be separate areas with adequate clean air ventilation systems so that smokers and non smokers alike can socialise in the same places without having to break the law (and freeze when they have to go out for a fag). I also strongly believe that if there is food being served in the pubs or clubs that smoking should not be allowed at any time. sorry if i ramble but first post
