Smoking

A neighbour of mine falls into that category - in fact he's determined to do it on Jan 1st so by the time July rolls around he should be well on the road (to recovery?).

Yes the separate rooms plan which room would that be the one next to the bar or the one adjoining the bar room. Initially I thought that was a good idea BUT Then we have the situation that the glasses have to be collected, the person doing this over a period of time contracts lung disease due to all the passive smoke. (I say might) No what has moved this is the thought of legal redress (financial) by a worker who has been placed in such scenarios and has damaged their health. ASIDE I thought it rather stupid that one couldn't smoke in the cab of an HGV or lorry allegedly in Scotland but then the vehicle might have to be driven by other personnel who don't smoke.

No what amuses me is the sight of pubs putting in decking and big parasols for those to go outside and smoke while drinking- more such schemes will take hold as time moves on. Not sure what happens at city centre pubs though were there is no outside space to 'develop'.

Agreed, but also a separate room does not separate the air unless you have air locks. Ventilation doesn't work either unless you've got a tornado force air exchanger.
