Smoking while dining Alfresco ?

<< < (16/23) > >>

Gill C:
As someone that's uses an inhaler and has had to leave a table because of smoke blown my way I can cope with ,but having it blown on my two small Grandchildren I find it offensive they cannot get up and leave.

Jimbo:
Threatening to crush the property of others is the action of an ignorant and stupid barbarian.

I will do what I am allowed to do (decreasingly) with sensitivity to others. I will not be bullied or blackmailed. As it happens, my educational qualifications are more than adequate, thank you.

Going back to your original 2 questions,

Pedantic? No

Others opinion? I think it is agree or disagree depending on their point of view!

Looking forward to your next 'blockbuster' thread  ;D

Sellsy:
Loftyscot - It was a well intended genuine question merely seeking out opinion regarding this aspect of dining.I have tried to put it into context that on a rare occasion our meal was genuily spoilt as all tables around us were smoking throughout. No big scene,we just finished off and went for a few beers!

I honestly believe there is room for both with a little bit of give and take required on either side. I would say however , that for every clean air soldier , there is a smoker who appears to revel in the Corfu freedom of being able to smoke as and when, and many show little regard for those who would rather not be covered by smoke.

In the context of this old world it's no big deal as such, I very much approve of ,and appreciate some of the light hearted banter within the thread. I prefer to read them over some of the barbed comments and pseudo threats. Having said all of that, I hope members agree this has been an interesting thread, just wouldn't want people falling out or getting upset about it!      Now then, peeing in the sea is not as bad because....... ;D

What a selfish and biased comment from a man who was apparently a BBC news producer/presenter (reading, writing and evaluating news and never been sued, that's a surprise) also is/was an author, play-write, not to mention a person adept in metaphysics.

Surely, from such a learned person, one would expect a more balanced viewpoint of a habit that causes countless diseases and deaths in both adults and children.

Why the hell should Bristle Boy (the one with the tiny mind) move? Perhaps it would be beneficial to all if the person causing the potential health problems moved!

Adequate educational qualifications maybe, but adequate sense?
