Smoking in Tavernas

<< < (13/21) > >>

Jimbo:
Don't ask sellsy. You won't like the reply.

Teamnickos:
I do think WinJ got a bit of a hard time. If you read the original entry it was not about 'smoking', it was about 4 people chain smoking all through a meal. Even when I was a smoker (and was for 30 years to my regret) I would have found that pretty unacceptable. The suggestion was not to ban smoking but to have smoking sections - what's wrong with that? I know that smoking is part of the greek culture as I've been travelling there for 25 years but maybe it's time to move with the times? For the record, if someone was smoking  at the table next to me I would not be bothered but I understand that some would be.

Jimbo:
Without entering the debate again, Frankie, which I don't want to do, people eat at different times. Some people may be on the Metaxa (spelling) and fags when others are arriving.

Nafsika, apart from excellent food, has a very large non-smoking area, which I commend to those who find the smell of tobacco more irritating than the pervasive smell of cheap perfume, mosquito repellent and barbecue lighter-fuel.

As Andy pointed out, Little Prince tried this and had several empty tables for the night.

I have always been, and will always be, sensitive to the wishes of those nearby.

Teamnickos:
Jimbo, I wasn't suggesting for one minute that you weren't. This isn't about you ;D I was merely voicing my opinion that I thought WinJ got a bit of a hard time

Frankie

cambridge:
Passive smoking, or passive cheap perfume, mosquito repellent and barbecue lighter-fuel?

Upon reflection I'll go for the latter, but I'm funny when it comes to my lungs.

I hope that's helpful!
