As of 1 July this year, it is illegal to smoke in workplaces or enclosed public places in England - yes that includes pubs! Bizarrely enough it's mandatory to put a sign up on pretty much all buildings to that effect - seems a bit unnecessary when it's now the rule, not the exception - perhaps there was a vested interest in a sign-making business somewhere...
The one thing that remains to be seen is whether non-smokers will be able to get seating space in any outside areas at pubs or restaurants - then again, if summer continues like this we may only find out next year...
