Hats off to smokers

29/11/07 -

Guests at the Clifton Hotel in Portland, Dorset, were faced with having to stand outside in the wind and rain after the hotel was denied a smoking shelter.

Owner Chaz Charlton, 41, bought a box load of umbrella hats for patrons and staff to wear when they needed to pop out for a crafty fag so at least they won't get their heads wet, although a strong breeze will probably see more than a few Mary Poppins impressions.

The customers love it," said Mr Charlton, "and the staff quite like them too. I don't smoke but I'm not against smokers either."
