This pisses me off!! Just because this isn't classed as a "real" cigarette AIBU to be pissed off when vaping around my babies. Or in any private places such as restaurants,pubs etc.

Ive been to two weddings where a couple where even vaping in CHURCH!!!
And then my niece was making her 1st holy communion and the lady in front was vaping...

I have seen no clinical evidence to suggest its safe.So in the mean time id wish the minority who do it would piss off.

And alcohol consumption is banned in many public places. It's not OK to drink a can of cider or a G&T in the school playground as far as I'm aware.

@3EyedRaven that makes sense actually! I never thought about it like that!

Yanbu. Vaping is anti social and in the ma seems to be undertaken by common people.

SoNouveau · 03/09/2017 14:28

But I don't start opening bottels of Sancerre when my primary school age children have their frineds round for tea becasue I don't see it as a child friendly activity

Possibly not but you might well have a glass or two of wine with your Sunday Lunch if you chose, especially if you have guests.

Anyway, enough of the fits of the vapours, I have our lunch to sort out and a large red to go with it.
You look like you've had a couple already Wink

Please stop making personal and insulting remarks. I haven't done that to you.
And, FWIW, I'm stone cold sober and don't drink in the afternoon.
But not in the least bothered if anyone else does.

Common people? Good grief, what an embarrassing thing to say.

HashiAsLarry · 03/09/2017 14:57

What if you're common and don't vape? Do you have to hand your credentials back? Confused

Sayyouwill · 03/09/2017 14:57

@FreudianSlurp they aren't forced into the smoking area, but rather it's the better option. They can't smoke inside, the front of the hotel looks into a busy road and requires a further walk and more stairs than the smoking area. So if people begin to vape we direct them to the smoking area, but they aren't forced if that makes sense? Obviously I wouldn't force someone to do something they don't agree with

SerfTerf · 03/09/2017 15:04

Maybe if you neck enough eels, it makes up for it hashi?

I know I am being unreasonable but the buggers who puff out enormous clouds of raspberry and mango flavoured Steam as you walk behind them piss me off. It always seems to be blokes who make as much of a cloud as possible - surely not all vapes do that?

You can keep them if you have a massive plasma telly, a hot tub in the back garden and a mattress in the front garden.

Sayyouwill · 03/09/2017 15:14

@FreudianSlurp good point. I'll definitely have a think about how we work our policy to vapers

@FreudianSlurp eeee no, id hate to make people feel uncomfortable! Unfortunately you can't always know how saying something may be interpreted or received so it's better to have things pointed out so you can look at improving!

HerOtherHalf · 03/09/2017 15:23

You just don't vape in a church

So you support/respect organised religion which has inspired the slaughter of countless millions yet you object to vaping which has not been linked to a single fatality. How bizarre.

3EyedRaven · 03/09/2017 15:27

But churches have such beautiful architecture, and vaping is so unsightly
