I've heard about this smoking ban...all I gotta say is it sucks! Haven't been to London in ten years, but we liked to stay at the Hotel Intercontinental near Piccadilly and Regent's Park. Nearby there was a pub named The Rose & Thistle, if I rightly recall...I could smoke there and eat good fish & chips. And when I couldn't sleep due to jetlag, I could go downstairs to the spacious hotel lobby and smoke stogies, no sweat.
That is all gone now? Did I mention this sucks? :angry:
