The idea of banning smoking on beaches is stupid in the extreme. But I ask the sub-editors of the News.com.au website to ask themselves what a "non-smoking ban" actually means. While I'm sure many on Bondi would enjoy being forced to constantly light up, I fear that my very own enlightened Waverley Council mean to stop people from smoking at Bondi, not the opposite.

Mate I am a smoker and I have religiously taken my butts with me from Bondi and any beach I go to. Whilst I would prefer to be able to keep smoking on the beach it's a case of a few spoiling it for the rest so I will have to support the ban and, ergo, from now on parade my less than beautiful "Bondi body" on "The Promenade"! (apologies to all foreign tourists)
