The government smiley - footinmouth passed a law here (South Africa) awhile ago saying that public places beneath a roof of some sort are non-smoking areas, smiley - huh but failed to do the research smiley - erm that would have told them smiley - doh that the majority of south-africans (80%+) are smokers.

*takes a puff & taps ash into nearby ash-tray*

The effect that this has had on businesses with regards to 'smoke-breaks' is that a (rather large) percentage of the day is wasted on the person needing the 'smoke-break' having to go to the smoker's area (which usually ends up being outside the building on the ground-floor).smiley - towel

*stubs out cigarette in aforementioned ash-tray*

smiley - dontpanic
