It's true...

From 1 July 2007 you won’t be able to smoke in any enclosed licensed premises (including gaming rooms) in Victoria. |

WHAA? :eek:
when did this happen? :nervous: |
That excuse may work for you at fabric Canada but I am not buying it for a second :stongue:
The banning has worked in the U.S and it will work here. I agree that the penalties will be very severe and the clubs will do what they are told. Remember when you could smoke in Shopping centres? Oh the days of hanging at "Shoppo" trying to be a wog!
Soups I thought you quit? Have you taken up the cancer sticks again?
I smoke but I dont like cigarette smoke, or smelly hands, or smelling breath. |

i hope its the patches. otherwise i could be on my way out! ;) |
those reactions are normal, read the pack it says so
it will subside, just like everything else just give it a few days |

Same! Everyone who smokes should have mints/chewies on standby & wash their hands regularly! |

smoking was banned in Tasmanian clubs from Jan 2005 and pubs & bars from Jan 2006.
Absolutely fantastic, IMO. Having to breathe disgusting air and have my contacts dry up in my eyes is not my idea of a fun night. It's amazing how quickly you get un-used to it, when I was in Melb for NYD and people were smoking at the Metro and even in a bowling alley I was reminded of how glad I am at Tassie's new law. Sure, there are some cranky people out there, but smokers have to realise when they smoke that others around them are forced to breathe in the stale second hand smoke. A big push behind the law was to protect the health of the hospitality workes. All very well for you smokers out there to tell them to 'find another job'
Pubs have reported a decrease in bar patronage and increase in takeaway sales, but afaik club nunbers haven't changed. Now there's just a big mob of people outside smoking on the footpath.
There's now a proposed law to ban smoking in cars, especially cars with children. My mother used to get cranky at me for opening the car window (to let her smokoe out) because she got cold or it messed up her hair. Whatever mum, I'll get more than cranky at you when you give me lung disease from all that passive smoking. |
