Smoking ban in England now?!

so after all this fuss over the smoking ban in Scotland in bingo halls...i just read on Online Bingo UK that a smoking ban will soon be in place for English bingo halls!

well i think this is pathetic. some people will say that i can't have an opinion because i don't play in the bingo halls, but in my mind you should be able to smoke in places like that - people go there to smoke and place bingo! all my bingo is online bingo these days - i can smoke and play all i like at Think Bingo, Bingo Scotland and Virgin Bingo!
