    I've seen a good few do it around town, but always best to ask the barman regardless.

    Some pubs allow it, there is one or two I believe that have no vaping inside stickers up. So would be recommended to just ask, theres no harm in it.

    Well it's not it's concentrated nicotine heated up by an electronic element.

    So no not the same as water .

    Just to be clear.

    Annoying for everyone else, though. I'd be sympathetic to any shop who barred vaping on-premises.

    You said it's the same as boiling kettle.

    The harm we don't know yet.

    Ive no qualms on vaping.

    Just be clearer on your points

    Who wants to be near a steaming kettle when your socialising?

    What, you don't bring your kettle to the pub with you, shameful!

    Cup of tea, coffee, Bovril... hot whiskey anyone? Bit of Vicks in a bowl with steaming water and a towel is great when the sinuses are blocked too.

    I appreciate where you guys are coming from but regarding Vaping I can only speak from personal experience. My husband was a very heavy smoker for 55 years and moved to Vaping 14 months ago. The difference has been astonishing, he looks 10 years younger, has tons more energy, his appetite has improved, and also best of all the house no longer smells of cigarettes.

    There have been many studies done including an interesting BBC Horizon documentary that has proved they are 95% safer than cigs and if all smokers moved to Vaping it would save 1 billion lives worldwide. The majority of the negative press etc around Vaping is sponsored by the tobacco companies who of course don't want anyone to give up smoking.

    I could do with some of this - would you recommend for non-smokers? :D

    Congrats to your husband, I'm an ex-smoker too. Although it is better than cigarette smoke, I don't like vaping near me and a vaper has no right to impose it on me
