    smoking ban

    BMA re Passive Smoking

     

    Wiki - not the best source but this one seems rather good

     

    Interesting enough, Geoffrey Kabat who is one half of the controversial study is a supporter of smoking bans.

     

    I've done the research, read the pros and the cons - even gone into looking at the levels of toxins in second-hand smoke and possible theoretical effects on lungs, etc.

     

    Of course, the big thing is that second-hand smoke is an irritate and contains several toxic components that whilst seeming small, are not that great when exposed to over a longer period.

     

    Maybe just forget the health aspect and consider the pollution factor - bit like commercial smoke control orders but on an individual scale :)

     

    Btw, the pub near us has a nice heated outside area for smokers - it's well posh and I bet it will not be so bad in the Winter months either, and I believe a lot of pubs have gone this route so I don't personally see that individual liberties are being swallowed up here as smokers are being catered for.

    It's been a long time since I've been to one of your Park Meets, so I'm definitely looking forward to it - supposed to go Kew with a friend, but figure I can do Kew on a different weekend :D

     

    What time do you lot plan to meet up - thinking getting train down in the morning and maybe just staying over on the Sat.
