They should make cigarettes smell better. I've got some dark cherry and vanilla tobacco for my pipe and when smoked in a light breeze I end up smelling a bit like potpourri apparently...

If they did that to all cig brands the tobacco companies would be accused of trying to attract children.

also, I don't take 3 or 4 15 minute breaks a day to drink a pint and then come back into the office stinking of alcohol causing the other people in the office to cough.

That is a managearial failure if the staff are taking exessive breaks to smoke, unless of course they do extra time to compensate for the breaks.
On an anecodtal side, I have never met someone who has started to cough becuase someone has entered a room who has smoked. Coughed because they are in the vicinity of a smoker who is smoking but not afterwards.

Add to that the habit of restaurants that have a smoking section not to partition it off, so that the smoke doesn't go into the non-smoking section and the waiter/waitress stinking of cigarettes, when serving your food... Really puts you off the food.

Ah, in the UK we're ok with that now as there can't be a smoking section.

I did used to wonder how the smoke was supposed to know not to go past the No Smoking sign?!

Dont worry, there are now calls for smoking to be banned from beer gardens, as the smoke doesnt recognise smokers and non smokers.

First the non-smokers wanted everybody outside, and when summer comes along they want them all back inside.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I went to Berlin last weekend and in a few of the bars we went to, they ignored the smoking ban. We actually went outside to smoke as it was so smoky in there. Amazing how quickly you get used to it.
