i’m in amsterdam for the night before i fly back home. I was aware of the new smoking laws that banned smoking in public buildings. According to the folks at the Hilton here, the law only allows hotels to offer no more than 4% of their rooms as “smoking” allowed. This sucks, i have to go down stairs everytime i want to smoke. That sure killed my idea of sitting around in my room and doing some work later tonight.
be strong…and quit!
i feel your pain. last time i was flying to oz from europe, i chose to fly through frankfurt particularly because i knew that the airport had smoking areas. guess my surprise when i arrive there and the rules have changed. no smoking anywhere in the airport. so i got pissed in 4 hrs in the airport and ended up smoking in the bathroom 
on arrival here though, i did quit. was a heavy duty smoker too…crazy stuff
