My wife and I are regular visitors to Scotland. The village pub we tend to call our local was always full of smokers. This didnt matter whether there were children in the pub or not. These were regular customers who we had known for years. They almost seemed to chain smoke lighting fag after fag. I remember saying that if they can make the ban work here it will work anywhere. We have been back numerous times since (Roll on August
) and the same regulars are at the bar. They go outside for their fag and back in for their Pint of Belhaven Best. What we have noticed though is they do not seem to smoke as much as they used to. It used to be two fags per pint now its two pints per fag
