Higher tobacco age limit in force
Amazing a piece of Government legislation I am fully behind!
The new law making the sales of cigarettes to under 18's illegal is now in force and seems to have already started to work.
According to my 14 year old this law has had an immediate effect as there were only about 10 pupils in the "smokie" (down bog alley in my old school) at his school today rather than the normal 30-40. Seems like this has had an immediate impact on sales. It also make it easier for shopkeepers to say no to school kids who claimed they were 16.
