Has your contact with cigarette smoke since the ban risen or dropped?
I personally have found that now everyone is pushed outside to smoke I am now in contact with it everyday and i never use to be. What are everyones views/thoughts/opinions?

I still find I get smoke blown into my face outside shops around entrances which I really dont appreciate.

I agree, whenever i'm walking around town i always seem to have smoke being blown into my face.
And people stand outside our door at work so it comes in anyway. Watching all the people smoke at the bench is quite funny cos they cram on ! All you can see is a cloud of smoke

Funny thing is I never used to be bothered about it but when I'm outside now and people are smoking even the slightest bit floats over I'm really disgusted by it.
Never used to care really but I think once you have that cleanliness then its a big thing when its not there.

Worst thing though is that the smoke used to cover up the bad odour smeel in the pub

i hardly ever have contact with smoke now, most of my friends are non smokers so i dont have to go outside with them for fags if we are out on the piss, and i also made my house non smoking this year after my old flatmate moved out, even though the 2 guys i live with smoke. I cant stand the smell of it at all now, its disgusting

Yes I noticed this, went to our local for a pint the other week. Walked in it stunk of sweat, stale ale. Just generally rancid, its not the cleanest place before anyway, now its just grim.

Much less.
At work the smokers must go to the otherside of the yeard in the shelter.
And at the pub the benches are to one side so it's not in your face as you walk through the entrance.
Loving it.

Definitely much less contact with smoke.
At work smokers are made to stand round the side out of public and staff view.
In pubs most of the smoking areas and well out the way of the entrances. And most of the door staff keep smokers off the door too.
At the shops, most of them are in indoor shopping centres and on the highstreet you only pass smokers quickly outside some shops.
Loving the smoking ban

Quite a lot less contact actually. Feels weird in pubs as I'm used to the fog!

I've noticed it's worse for me, going in to town in the day means walking through a cloud by the door.
Not been in a pub since, but I expect it to smell of old drunken men.
