Smoking while dining Alfresco ?

I agree totally with Baj. The trouble is that non smokers do NOT have any choice whether they smoke or not if smokers are indulging in their habit. Even if you aren't convinced about the health stuff you still end up smelling of it.
 It might  be a silly comparison but I enjoy doing cross stitch and if I do it at the table it does not affect anyone else....... but if you choose to smoke I have to smell it too.  Not that I do cross stitch at the table as a rule.....(usually too busy eating and drinking and talking too much!)  but you get my drift!

But you could say the same thing about driving a car as the exhaust fumes clog up the air and can cause respritory conditions, where do you dram the line?

Andy - I can't believe your'e actually quoting the Daily Mail - the paper with the worst record of appalling lies in the history of journalism!

That the report is spurious. I'm amazed that you would quote it.

My complaint last year was one evening when it was particularly windy, and everyone was eating indoors.
I was very disappointed when the member of staff who was serving us, went outside to have a quick puff, then came back in,  and passed our table, still carrying a lit cigarette, trailing the smell behind her.Horrible, we won't be eating there again!

Jules:
Being a none smoker all my life I don't like people smoking near me but whilst on holiday for my 2 weeks I accept that some people will smoke at there table. By the time most start smoking it is usually time for us to be moving on anyway. Having said that we have never seen that many smoking near us either. For the sake of my 2 weeks holiday in the place we love we accept that there is a bit of give and take.
