Today on the train back to Leeds the tannoy man on the train kept banging on about the smoking ban in train stations. At one station he said that smoking was not allowed anywhere including the far extremities of the platform and to remember "although you may feel like you are outside - you ARE NOT! This is the workplace of British Transport and so smoking is not allowed here".
Enough all-fucking-ready!! We know there is a bloody smoking ban!
At Leeds station he also told us that we are not allowed to smoke on the footpath outside the station! As if!! That is outside and excuse me but i thought the ban included places that had 3 walls. You could argue that the pavement is the workplace of policemen/street sweepers/big issue sellers etc and so no smoking there. Ugh! I didn't even think about wanting a ciggie until he started whinging on about it. I bet he's an ex-smoker. They are the worst. My Boyf is now one of these. He actually rubs his hands in glee at the thought of winter and smokers having to go outside. It's only to make himself feel better because he loves smoking so much.
I say shut up about it we know there is a smoking ban. There are even no smoking stickers in the bank. THE BANK!!! When have you ever been allowed to smoke in there???!!! Grr. I'll leave it now. I know all this has been said by many people already. Just had to put my 2 pennies worth in.....
