I live in a top floor flat (2nd floor up)

The couple below me both smoke. When they do, they hold the cigarette out the window and also exhale the smoke out the window. Great, this stops the smoke from entering their well decorated flat.

However, if my front window is open, which it usually is...the smoke comes straight into my flat and stinks the place out.

Because they are smoking in their own property i don’t think I’ll have a leg to stand on. But i thought I’d ask anyway.

All flats are owned by the tenants and therefore there are no landlords i can contact.

Apart from going down and asking them to go out the building to smoke, I’m not sure what else i can do.

So you have trouble with their unwanted odours coming up into your flat? Maybe you should hang your wang out and piss down into theirs

I did consider that.

When i clean up, i make a point of emptying my dust pan and brush out the window in the hope that it goes into theirs

That's a good idea mate, also try collecting a variety of spiders etc and empty them out of your window too

i can tell you now, that smoking can kill, as my grandad died from lung cancer caused by smmoking, and no non smoker should have to put if with a smokers smoke if they dont want it

No steve, the logic is that because there are smokers who live to old age smoking does not kill.

One of my grandmothers died recently from lung cancer attributed to smoking.

The remaining one is practically chain smoking, but is *touchwood* very healthy and approaching her 90s.

It's just luck at the end of the day, but regardless it's a nasty thing to have to put up with when you're suffering like Aj is.

Is that supposed to be a joke? Smoking kills, end of. They dont put it on the packet for no reason. My gran has cancer as a result of it even though she gave up 20 years ago, had two unsuccessful operations to remove it aswell Giving up smoking is the best thing i ever did, its completely pointless and makes you look like a twat

I don't think you would either.

You can smoke in your own home, which is what they're doing, so regardless of where the smoke goes, there's no law against it, which is unfortunate for you.

The sollution is pretty simple!!..

Start pissing and shitting out of your window when ever they are smoking! They will soon stop smoking! (and probably knock on your door in rage)

Maybe, but I'd be surprised.

Bit of a joke if you can't do what you want in your own home TBF

What if they were shooting each other in their own homes? Who cares about that.
If one of the bullets hit you you wouldn't be happy though.

Or scat, very stupid suggestions but exactly the same principal.

It was the point Robin, i'd be pissed off if it was happening to me as well.

Smoking kills no matter how much smokers like to babble on.

Non smokers shouldn't have to breath it in just because smokers don't mind.

I'm not saying it doesn't kill

All I'm saying is, it's their house/window/balcony/garden. There is NO law saying they cannot smoke on their property, however unfortunate that might be, it's the case.

Shooting people is illegal. Smoking in your own home is not.
