Neighbour Smoking, Affecting Others.

[Jennykenny]

A friend lives in a first floor flat and her neighbour below comes out onto her balcony/terrace below to smoke. The smoke rises up and is very unpleasant for my friend, even coming into her kitchen.
She wants suggestions as how to approach this problem, as, if she asks them to stop please, and explains how it is affecting them, and they say no, she still has the problem and, now, an angry neighbour.
Any practical suggestion please.
Thanks.

My neighbours used to be weed smokers. We have adjoining outhouses and that's where they smoked. I hated it. But...they were great neighbours besides that so I wouldn't complain.

"How much smoke is generate ny a cigarette?": A lot more that a diesel car it would seem: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/12481.php
Also 90% of the filth pumped out is invisible.

It may also be worth noting that recently a lot of Landlords and Housing Associations have introduced no smoking within properties - thereby pushing more people outdoors than before.

My own managing agents have just tried this on me after 40 years in a secure tenancy - I may think of complying when they replace my 50 year old bathroom.

Not angry, I offer a simple, obvious, solution to an inconsiderate neighbour. You sound angry to me with your nightly BBQ threat. It is a trait of smokers to get angry when their victims offer the slightest dissent. It was your selfishness that made the smoking ban in 2007 necessary, you'd never have put your own house in order. I endured up till then with the rest of the non smokers, all the time we knew our time would come and it has mainly due to your own selfishness that it was forced upon you. Now you hide like dissidents in whatever place you can, still banging on about freedom of choice etc with once ever acknowledging the foul outpourings you inflict upon the non smoker. Your disgusting habit is, thankfully, in its death throws and history will note it as a curiosity.

I used to know someone who smoked chains. They were so difficult to start & one hell of a game to put out ( they'd smoulder for hours )

Patronising hereiam, how so ?

[anneasquith]

I don't smoke by the way. But I am tolerant of those that do and enjoy their pleasure, you should try it.

[ToraToraTora]

so you've managed to give up, well done.

Are you his agent ?? or protector or whatever ?

I smoke, but if I go to a non-smoker's home, I won't.
And won't even go into their garden for a puff.

Mamya, what next?!! Soon they'll be telling us what colour of bed-linen to have
(could expand, but won't)
