Whimpers quietly in corner - "here I am trying to die quietly, and they are trying to kill me buy giving me lung cancer just to be sure."

Oh how I wish I was well and could go to Sainsbury's to see the great new Starbucks...

[citizenED]

*coughs and splutters through the fug*

*this smoking lark is quite a laugh really*

*save for the blistered throat, the weeping eyes, reeking clothes, the, etc, etc*

*wonders, does ban operate in a virtual room?*

[SeanMacGabhann]

* looks up manual *

"A virual ban is in place and is policed by virtual wardens and virtual police

Although - no-one has ever seen these "

* I think you are safe ed *

[citizenED]

*glancing over shoulder, hands DM a packet of high tar Lucky Strikes*

*they have healing properties don't you know, this bloke once told me*

*settles back down, and starts chain smoking with a vengence*

*when ban comes in, i'm heading straight outside to virtual smoking area*

*don't fancy being nicked by the cyber-police*

[dulwichmum]

Passes CitizenEd one of James' favourite cigars. Gestures to the entire room, "Cigar anyone?, I am smoking three at a time myself!"

[TillieTrotter]

*gratefully receives a cigar from DM and looks around for Jah Lush's bottle of brandy to add to flavour*

[citizenED]

*Loved that cigar DM, thank James for me*

*graduates onto a pipe*

*graduates onto chewing tobacco*

*texts NHS direct for advice...*

[Keef]

*Is excited that smoking is still allowed in the quiet room*

*Sparks up*

*Walks around the room blowing smoke at all the non smokers*

[Michael Palaeologus]

*Pulls on all-enveloping decontamination suit and advances on Keef with a very large butterfly net ...*

[citizenED]

*is that the smoking police?*

*quick, Keef, to the virtual smoking area*

[Jah Lush]

*Pops head in the door...aah somewhere where I can still have a fag and a drink at the same time without getting my collar felt. Marvellous! Orders a couple of Zombies, hands one to Keef. Anyone mind if I skin up?*

[Keef]

*Gives Jah huge thumbs up on all counts!*

[Jah Lush]

*Sparks up massive spliff, takes a few tokes on the heavenly herb and passes it to Keef.*

[Keef]

*Thanks God above for Jah and his naughty behaviour!* *Sends text to Fear telling him to get in here!*

[Jah Lush]

*Rolls another and thinks "blimey I'm bit stoned maaan and have now got a serious attack of the munchies. Sends out for pizzas, and peruses the Quiet Room's record collection before finally settling on Lee "Scratch" Perry's Roast Fish, Corn Bread and Collie Weed. Seems rather Apt. Starts skanking round the room with blissful smile on face.*
