O.T. Regulation of smoking in public places

Platypus <> spouted the following in

LOL. Nice one.

Then there was the one with the cleaner at our factory who tipped some
old solvent down the loo, sat down for a shit and a wank over his porn
mag, lit up and chucked the match down the pan between his legs....

At hospital they treated him for 3rd degree arse burns and concussion
where he'd hit the bog cieling with his head.

 

A wise move young Moose /

 

Err, thats wot e sed.

 

Oooooh get 'Er.

 

Hmm. Dunno. Normally the smart money would always go on a lad from
the Traaaaansavaaaal, but in this case I think the Bokker is
essentially a "nice chap", whereas I think The Dwarf has got a bit of
a mean streak.

 

tallbloke made the world a better place for us by saying..

D'oh! I read it as being a kind of "stop people smoking, hence banning
passive smoking"....

No, no, no. That's not right at all - give them a fair trial, listen
to what they have to say - then cut off their goolies!

 

See, this is the difference between non-smokers and smokers. Non-smokers
tend to think that if you really want to smoke, go ahead, just don't do it
around me.

Smokers remind me of "loadsamoney", waving it around in peoples faces and
forcing it down their throat.

You want to kill yourself, do it in private. Don't jump off a bridge and
hold up the traffic.

 

Good.

 

Well, you are right - except if you're standing waiting where the doors
eventually end up and someone comes along and lights up.
Then you've got the choice of accepting the smoking or potentially have to
wander off and have no chance of getting a seat.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter as my opinion is still that I think it's a
great idea banning smoking

 

Well, considering I'd value the opinion of a particularly noxious turd
before I'd consider yours, certainly not me.

 

Point of order Mr Dodger - Hobbits are a) hairy b) have very large feet.

I have neither of these traits.

BTW - I'm taking note of all these little comments....

 

Unfortunately you are correct - I doubt I could effectively punch my way out
of a paper bag and I 'd feel about it if I did.

 

What's your definition of an enclosed space? The end where all the shops are
has a roof - walls...

Actually I am always very impressed by the design of the roof at Paddington
in that it *does* suck the fumes out.
Obviously originally designed for the steam trains I guess but still
impressive.

 

Known in the trade as the Lawn. (IIRC they've called the shopping area
that)

It's a lot more impressive now the old platform indicators[1] have been
moved. As you come up out of the tube station you are faced by a huge
expanse of cathedral like glass.


[1] shame the new ones are crap

 

feel bad even.

Non smokers split into two camps. People who don't smoke and people who
are aggresively anti-smoking. The latter are often ex-smokers.

Which group do you fall in Bruce?

Its obvious innit ?

When I was a smoker I never smoked around people who didn't like it.

I was a nice smoker.
