It is true .... I'm 40 something and when I last went back we went to the usual places for a fag. It's strange but I guess it has to be done. It seems too indiscreet to smoke in the open. Anyway soon they'll probably make all of England a no smoking zone - so we'll still have to hide away for a smoke hoping not to get caught.

Something along the lines of "I suppose you thought that was funny..."?
