Wow! I knew the smoking ban was good, but I had no idea that it would
cut down on crowds and on alcohol consumption.

But on the plus side, the pubs are full of screaming brats! In the good old
days, kids were confined to the garden, now the only way anyone can get away
from them is to stand outside with the smokers.

From the article :"The figures add yet more weight to growing concerns
over pub closures, the impact of rising prices and shrinking consumer
confidence."
and no mention of the smoking ban so the brewing industry doesn't
appear to share your views,
Cheers,

He's one of those rare artists who has progressed, whilst remaining (IMHO)
good. His latest stuff is very difficult, I don't play it often, but when
you're in the right mood it's wonderful.
