Posted February 13, 20169 yr The concourse is a disgusting place to be these days, it stinks of those gastly things that most places ban altogether like cigarettes? The concourse has a low level ceiling unlike the main stands, surely the smoke disperse better in the stands than the concourse? Anyway, my moan is around banning them altogether in the ipro please? Someone have some sense, im sick of tasting vanilla with my dinner 4 hours later!
February 13, 20169 yr I thought they were supposed to be. Im sure I saw a tweet about it :edit: Seems it was to stop it on the stands but allow it in the concourse.

Exactly that, i thought initially a concourse ban, but looking online it appears to be a stand ban? The concourse needs more attention IMO, more intrusive
February 13, 20169 yr I don't see how in the concourse is more acceptable than in the stands, at least the stands is in open air!

February 13, 20169 yr I've seen a few in the stands on the sly. Never noticed any effects of them being in the concourse though.

And no, I'm not condoning their use at the iPro. I vape - but I still go outside at half time for a chuff on mine because the Memsahib still smokes.

February 14, 20169 yr Yet another attempt to alienate the smoker/vaper it smells better than greasy burgers and chips. I think it's a good alternative to smoking but some folk have to complain.
February 14, 20169 yr I am a smker, and not trying to alienate anyone just putting my view across. In a study by Harvard Quote In their study, published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, the researchers tested 51 types of flavored e-cigarettes and liquids sold by leading brands for the presence of diacetyl, acetoin, and 2,3-pentanedione, two related flavoring compounds that the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association lists as “high priority”, i.e., they may pose a respiratory hazard in the workplace. At least one of the three chemicals was detected in 47 of the 51 flavors tested. Diacetyl was detected above the laboratory limit of detection in 39 of the flavors tested. Acetoin and 2,3-pentanedione were detected in 46 and 23 of the 51 flavors tested. The Harvard researchers found that the heating, vaporization and inhalation of flavoring chemicals in e-cigarettes makes smokers’ exposure similar to that of workers in the microwave popcorn industry. http://anonhq.com/harvard-study-finds-e-cigarettes-contain-dangerous-popcorn-lung-chemicals/
February 14, 20169 yr and from the telegraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/news/12073221/E-cigarettes-are-no-safer-than-smoking-tobacco-scientists-warn.html
February 14, 20169 yr Yeah and if you listen to everything that comes out you'd end up in a room wrapped up in cotton wool.

February 14, 20169 yr Second hand smoke from e-cigs is almost as dangerous. If you agree with the smoking ban on health grounds, you have to agree with it extending to e-cigs too. Simple as that.

February 18, 20169 yr 11 hours ago, eddie said: Complewte and utter bullsheet. Okie doke then. I'm not against E-cigs, just like I'm not against smokers. Many of my family and friends vape and we get on just fine. I was raised in a constant cloud of second hand smoke so second hand vapour doesn't bother me. What I am against is this fingers-in-ears "lalalala" attitude to the dangers of vaping. It's still bad for you. If you understand that, you're a big boy and you can make your own decisions, I'm not stopping you.
