No Smoking In Church
A friend of mine who works for the Catholic Church was lamenting the number of Government initiatives and regulations he has to deal with. (Yes, even God is micromanaged by New Labour.) The latest is the smoking ban. Despite his plaintive cry - “when did you ever see anyone smoking in church, ever?” - he has to wade through reams of gudiance. Now every church in the land will have a No Smoking sign within 3 metres of its entrance. (Is Westmintser Abbey exempt?) The guidance is silent on incense.

This is absolutely crazy, I’ve never seen anyone light up in church.
I am studying for a PR postgraduate diploma and have chosen to write a research paper on MPs blogging. I would be very grateful if you would complete a survey I will be issuing shortly, would that be ok?

I heard that incense is actually more carcinogenic than cigarette smoke!
