Or have numbers in pubs remained the same?

IN New York, the number has grown. People just smoke outside, or some have added smoking rooms. Seems like the smoking ban has brought out more non-smoking drinkers than anything else. At least here in the center of the universe.

Definitely slightly down over all and a lot down in clubs. Why couldn't they have brought in a regulation about air purifiers. How is it healthier for me (a non smoker) to have to walk through clouds of cigarette smoke to get into any building these days?
Every city street reeks of nicotine as well. I have no issue with smokers but this was not the sensible option!!

The same.
The pubs in my area have provided outdoor heating, lighting and a covered seating area!

suppose it is a bit quieter but no-one seems to mind going out we have a nice smoking area at our local with heaters, most smokers i know don't mind going outside things might change when its chucking it down and gail force winds.
