Don't think it it would really bother me either Sonic. I've noted a few times that those patio heaters can't be a good thing whilst enjoying a pub cigarette.

I'm not bothered either way although with incandescent lightbulbs being banned as well, you wonder what else they will think of. It's not like it's going to make much difference to global warming anyway.
Personally I'm more bothered that this is yet another regulation being imposed on us by Europe which we have no say in. Perhaps it's just me being silly, I thought we lived in a democracy where we decided our own affairs.

Anyone have any linkage?
We haven't gone non-smoking yet over here in the sunny Isle of Man but it's due to kick off at the end of March.
Hopefully we'll give that bit of legislation the same treatment we gave tax. A miss!

I wouldn't worry too much, I doubt that even if it did happen it would take a while.

Patio Heaters isn't the name of a foreign footballer then. Whoops.

Apparantly the sun is cooling down so I don’t see the problem with this climate bollocks, the fact the sun is cooling down suggests that getting rid of the heaters is a bit premature and will just give more people the sniffles.
Think of the days off sick now because of these heaters being removed

Apparantly the sun is cooling down you what ? don't talk rubbish ! the press would have you believe that 'scientists are unsure about global warming' and portray it as a 50-50 split on opinion. if you go to any scientific conference, read peer reviewed journals you will find out of 100 scientists there is probably 1 that doesn't believe in global warming (and then you find out he is funded by BP). edit: although don't get me wrong, on my rant, patio heaters have fuck all to do with global warming.. |

a mate of mine just won the nobel prize for it (actually true - al gore might be a bit of a tit, but at least he had the decency to share the prize with the scientists that actually did the work)
