We are
Surrounded
By smokers
Seems we are
The odd ones
Out -- as the
Non-smokers.
(Since most of the houses in the UK are fitted with smoke alarms, hence people either stand outside or open their doors and windows to lean outside and smoke. The ladies living on either side of our house smoke, so do the couple living at the back and the bloke living in the front of our house.)

Smoking is injurious to health, warns the Indian Government. In Kerala, smoking in public is illegal. But, of course, you can smoke in the privacy of your home. And, in India, hardly any house has smoke alarms So smokers are safe.
