As long as they keep dropping peanut shells, toothpicks and paper
napkins on the floor it'll still feel like a Spanish bar.

So, it's going to illegal for parents to light up when they take their
kids to an open-air playground, but perfectly OK for them to light up
inside their home? That's even more arse about face than the UK
smoking laws.

Are they banning bonfires as well? They are far more harmful than
open-air cigarette smoking.

And walking along the street breathing in traffic fumes.
But what's the point!

Yes, but I'm personally more concerned that they don't light up in
restaurants and bars. It's a real pain in the neck in Spain.

And walking along the street breathing in traffic fumes.


Just because walking along the street breathing in traffic fumes is
unpleasant doesn't mean that it's any less pleasant smelling smoke in
bars and restaurants.
