Absolutely, yes - they are awful things. I feel really fed up at times. Cigarette smoking largely ruined my social life (not to mention causing no end of problems at work) when I was younger. The (UK) ban on smoking in enclosed public spaces was an absolute godsend, but now people think they can vape indoors at will, which makes me wheezy & is ruining nights out again for me.

I strongly believe that, here at least as I don't know the law in other countries, they should bring e-cigs on a par with ordinary ones & ban them inside.

I am so glad you shared this! I ABSOLUTELY start coughing when I am around someone who is using e-cig or vaping.

I am so glad I am not the only one, I struggle with vapers and have once had to go A&E via 999. The vaper said its only blackberry and water doesn't hurt anyone. God bless you xx
