I am a non-smoker and my wife is an ex-smoker now. When she smoked I enjoyed being able to sit with her right through a meal when in San Stef whilst she lit up, whereas back home she would go to the smoking area if she wanted a puff after her main course. Therefore in Greece I like the idea of smokers and non-smokers mingling as the smoke tends to drift away harmlessly when dining outside.
I guess it is all down to opinion, personally I find the voice and laughter traits of others more irritating.....you know the type that seems to think they must show they have the loudest laugh in the world or demonstrate they know the answer to everything by telling everyone their opinion.
In fact in the not so old days in Edinburgh, the pubs and restaurants used to have a lovely Gallic smell when the French arrived for the rugby weekend and you could smell the different smoke. Also I remember visiting places in the north of Scotland when the peat smoke and the pipe smoke mixed pleasantly in the hotels. Great nights!
