Originally posted by chris stephensHere in Florida the smoking was banned in 2003 in the resteurants and bars. First the attendance went down, but a year later, more people are attending the bars because they are smoke-free. I used to go alone, but now my wife and kids wants to go because there is no more sufficating smoke.
since scotland luanched its smoking ban in enclosed public places.
the first time i was in the pub on tuesday, it was strange as im used to holding a ciggie with my pint.
some pubs in glasgow have come up with some funny wheezes to get over it, including one with a room with no roof.
the ban seems to be working though, although we will see how many pubs will close in about 6 to 12 months, which will determine if it a success.
