Reyklaust Skotland

Fyrir ári síðan bönnuðu Skotar reykingar á öllum almennum stöðum og það virðist ganga vel. Það er engin reykjafíla á veitingastöðum og það eru skilti útum allt til að mynna menn á það.

Ég tók eftir skilti inni í hótelherberginu þar sem ég gisti síðast í Glasgow. Þar er minnt er á að það er bannað að reykja og ef það sé gert verður sá hinn sam látinn borga fyrir aðra nótt og fyrir sótthreinsun á herberginu. Það er best að passa sig.

Listinn yfir reyklausa staði er nokkur langur:

1. Restaurants.
2. Bars and public houses.
3. Shops and shopping centres.
