Here's a thought for you. How many thousands or millions of ashtrays have disappeared over night last weekend? Where are they all now?
Has e-bay been inundated with "Ashtrays For Sale?"

I collected my 'souvenir' ashtray from my local at the end of Saturday night. Might flog it, might not.

I'm sure after being suitably washed and disinfected some can be used in pubs/clubs for "nibbles" etc on the bar (to satisfy the cravings of previous smokers).

Of course many are still in use in the outside areas of pubs/clubs!

In my local they're all in the garden.

More to the point, there is no after-life usage for Mr Kipling jam tart foil trays any more.

Perhaps the goverment will enforce a collection order, melt them down and sell them to replace the Billions they might lose through tobacco tax.

What will they think of then to replace it when we recycle, don't smoke, can't drive.....tax on LIVING ??

Am I now living in a totaliitarian state? It appears to be. So what is "The War Against Terror" (TWAT) cos it seems to be our own government perpetrating the biggest clampdown on freedom.

Pass me a burckah!

I worry a booze ban will come in within our lifetime.

I think I'd rather top myself.

I heard it's tonight. Do it now! PLEASE!

No, it isn't.

I've got loads of ashtrays that i've gathered as souveniers from pubs over the years in my loft. Think i got some old beer mats too. ( aunt and uncle were publicans).

To go off topic. Isn't there a rule about avatars * looks at* Superguy and Ron Owen. I got told off for having a wee little Kitty. Thanks to TVM and his big gob.

Sorry Lorna, but I really love split infinitives.

So how many pubs have you got in your loft?
