Lord above Mine exploded in my trousers whilst I watched it... I got sticky tarry nicotine everywhere now... They need to be banned as it makes me want to vape with her.... And I don't smoke (well not since I escaped from the science lab that is)

Ho Lowlander Thank you for the answer, the fact that you do or don't smoke isn't relevant but it's useful to know where you are coming from in this discussion concerning the question on should Vaping adverts be regulated in the same way smoking adverts are.

I think he's more of a politician Seabag as he has ignored or failed to answer the question....

Did you hear about the agnostic dyslexic insomniac He lies awake all night wondering if there really is a Dog !

Oh dear If you haven't ordered one yet you are , as they say, "clucked"

From the same site have a look at the increasing awareness by 11 to 18 year olds http://www.ash.org.uk/files/documents/ASH_959.pdf

Hi lowlander, interestingly if you read the discussion by rahrahrah in the post above yours this is evidence that non smokers are taking up Vaping at a rate higher than your post suggests. Maybe you should post a link to the studies you have seen so people can see both sides of the argument? The issue is should the adverts be allowed especially as they make out it is cool or an advance in technology (although how they can compare Vaping to artificial hands is beyond me....) rather than is it better than smoking a cigarette

I have seen a number of Vaping Adverts on television , on buses and other places and it has made me curious over why a product that contains nicotine, an addictive product, does not conform to the same advertising rules that tobacco companies have to follow. Admittedly its marginally safer than tobacco based smoking, however it's long term effects and risks haven't been established scientifically yet. Is it right that we should expose young people to the temptation via advertising rather than trying to steer them away from seeing smoking (in any format) as cool ?

In the olden days they used to burn witches at the stake not confine them to the lounge... But of course this has absolutely nothing to do with Louisa's appeal (he says paws crossed)

Is sharpening your pencil some sort of euphemism ? If so you really are a very very naughty boy, no wonder she came over to have a closer look 🤓

Maybe it's going to be used to lubricate his head so that he can stick it up his own backside to avoide the noise... Welcome back Fazer have you been away as its been a while since you mentioned aircraft noise on here 😎

Maybe this man should lead the campaign

Taste and opportunity has changed over the years leading to vegetarians feeling free to come out of the closet, openly flaunt their gay abandonment of meat and enjoying a good quorn sausage without the fear of arrest or public humiliation ( explains the lack of notices these days about faggots sprayed on doors of vegetarians.) Is this the sort of thing the bigoted old fart is objecting about... Or am I taking this the wrong way ?

Oh yes

After last nights winds, the leaf machines must have been working overtime today And a jolly good job too..

Lordie DF Don't let Fazer71 hear you say that

Brilliant

Anyone know what is happening to the East Dulwich Hotel? Is it staying a hotel or are there other plans for it ?

I feel the need... ....the need for.....

Southwark have done nothing. > > DulwichFox Southwark have been taking the piss (or rather the lack of it) concerning public toilets for years There were purpose built brick toilets at one time, but they were closed due to 'naughty night time activity' by males in the area, then they proposed a loo with a view in Peckham square (cancelled due to cost) so hopefully they will get it right this time, especially as the majority of the time that people get caught short is nighttime when clubs and bars are closed or closing...

No idea to be honest but I could hazard a guess that they were responding to multiple calls of hooded kids terrorising the neighbourhood the night before ...

It has worked in other areas but not always... Hopefully in this case it will and with the night time economy already becoming more vibrant then I don't see it not

Has to be one of their classics and deals with yesterday's WHO report on red and processed meat... "Banger out of order" Can it get better I ask ?
