British Bingo Halls up in Smoke - Good News For Online Bingo

Don't Smoke - Play Online Bingo Instead!

In a move that has caused outrage and much nervous twitching amongst smokers throughout the UK, the British government has passed legislation that will effectively ban smoking in all public places including restaurants, pubs, clubs, casinos, and yes even good old bingo halls.

This is not good news for smokers in a country that boasts a bingo hall on just about every corner in every high street. A smoky haze in such venues is as common as tea and crumpets and the sound of 'bingo' or 'house' being called out by the young and old alike.

The new legislation has given the British public just a year and a half to quit smoking before the smoking ban will be enforced by the police and judicial system. In mid 2007, smokers will officially become 'second class' citizens and their 'nasty habit' will have to be kept from the public eye and lungs.

However, the good news for bingo fans is that they can play their favorite bingo games and variants at excellent online bingo casinos around the clock, from the comfort and safety of their own homes where they're free to smoke as much as they wish...cough.

Bingo halls that attempt to 'skirt' the ban will be fined up to?2500 per instance of smoking on their premises, while the culprit (the naughty smoker) will be fined up to ?50 - what a drag!

Online bingo gambling insiders are very interested to see how the smoking ban will affect attendance in 'smoke free' bingo halls and increase traffic to secure, reliable and lucrative online bingo halls such as Tiki Bingo.
