This debate reminds me of my younger son being told a few years back when he was at primary school that he couldn't run during play time, becaue of Health & Safety issues. For fecks sake, we've got thousands of obese kids who could do with some exercise, and the powers that be actively discourage physical activity. And then we wonder why we, as a nation, are so shit at every sport!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Marmora Man says "freedom of choice is a key right, but only as long as your decision has no negative impact on others." You could argue that people who eat too much, drive too fast, drink too much, take part in contact sports, claim benefits from the state, have too many children, have too many electrical gadgets etc. etc, are all having a negative impact on others, and some far more negative than smoking. But as usual our poxy nanny state bows to pressure form Brussels and does as its told. Pretty soon we aren't going to be able to fart without asking permission. F**king politicians and nanny state drive me mad. Why don't we all just live in sealed cocoons all or f**king lives, that way we'll all live to be 120 years old and have the most painfully dreary lives imaginable.

I wish East Dulwich was how it was 20 years ago, free of prententious middle class twats driving 4x4's, poncey shops, restaurants and Estate agents.

Hopefully, if this is true and is implemented, I can go back to enjoying the occasional cigar in my local. Bloody nanny state drives me fecking mad. Don't eat that, don't drink this. I'll make my own mind up thanks!!!!!

Very pleasing weekend. Man Ure drop points as did CSKA Fulham, who were lucky to get a point at Pompey. The ref at Blackburn needs shafting for the appalling display he turned in. I still fancy Everton for fourth place, who would have won at a canter had the ref been half decent. How ironic that Spurs helped us back to the top of the league!!

Bent stays and Defoe goes, very, very strange. Still, I don't blame him, he's been screwed around for too long. He's a decent player, I'm sure under 'arry and big Tones wing he will flourish.

Tell him if he doesn't use it, you'll scrub his face with it. Kill or cure.

I personally am neither for or against the "oldest profession in the world". If a woman wants to make money from her body, and a man is willing to pay for the privilege, what's the problem? I know this may offend some sensibilities and that prostitution flies in the face of most religions, but I can think of many, many, more worse things in life.

Interesting results last night, Chavski and Man Ure wins were expected. Pool losing means they can kiss any hope of winning the title goodbye. City's rubbish away form continued and surprised nobody. Vassell will never be a clinical finisher as long as he's got a hole in his bottom. Evertons result suggests that the bookies giving Spurs 50-1 to finish top 4 is about right. Looks like the men of Everton are more likely, at this stage, to be in ECL next season than Pool.
