Hi
Why do people accept smoking/vaping in restaurants is not permissible in the U.K. and generally accept it is an anti social habit.
Yet as soon as they leave the UK and travel to continental Europe ,where it is,
as the U.K., it is an an illegal practise, immediately think it’s the ok to light up?
Why not stand outside the premises and smoke, as they would do in the U.K.?

Doh . Geoff..... and just after I have sent you a PM. - You "rabbled" my "rouser'
It is a crazy thing when you can only smoke outside. - But.... in the those warm Summer evenings , when people eat outside , then surely we should be smoking inside ?? - But we break the rules. Are we poor smokers then condemmed to be pushed further from our Taverna to smoke on the roads??
Then we are a target for those "Non Smoker Fast Vehicles" - They are a vicious group and look for nicotine smokey bits , just like radar , and then attack!!
(Smokers being bounced off of bonnets and flying here , there , and everywhere. - That would put anyone off eating!! -
(Unless you have your own mustard and are knuckling down to a steak) - Wots dat which just flew past?, you ask,anyway he is holding a cig so it can't be that bad
All dis said , me 'ole mucker, not sure about these "E-Things" Creates more smoke than my Winter bonfires - Hate it with a passion.
(Stick them on the road and I will point my Punto at 'em)
Live well and prosper and keep an eye on those UK property prices.
Cheers

I agree with Geoff.
I am a smoker but never smoke in a restaurant - I always go outside.
The only exception is if NO-ONE is eating, and there are others around me smoking, AND the wind is in the right direction so that nobody else has to suffer my smoke.
I do smoke if it's a taverna 'tho', and other people are smoking too.

I am a non smoker but personally I think smokers are 'witch hunted' in this day and age ...... its unreal how they seem to be portrayed as the lowest of the low.
People do a LOT worse things .....
I am going to take cover now 😂

I agree Truth. The e cigarette I have looks like a normal cigarette. It gives off virtually no smoke. I would not blow smoke over anyone that was eating but to be honest it would not even reach anyone else let alone somebody on another table. We are still pounced on though in the UK so I personally like the relaxed attitude to them when on holiday.

Hi
No way do I consider smokers the lowest of the low.
The original e cigarettes were acceptable as were not so invasive. The new vapor type are like sending off smoke signals as the Sioux Indians did in the Wild West

Weird isn't it as surely you would think they would progress with them and there would be less smoke as they evolved......
Definitly not the case though is it ! ☹

What I don’t understand about the ‘vapers’ is why they clutch onto them like their life depends on it.

It does Jo 😂

Hi
I do the same with a good English ale and a single malt chaser.
