This is a serious question, What will happen to all the ashtrays in pubs? There must be thousands and thousands out there!

melted down and turned into one big ashtray boat where all the smokers have to go in the middle of the ocean to have a cig
Question Author
Wouldn't that be a public place though?
The ban is not about public places, it's in enclosed places where people are employed.

I imagine there will be a large supply of ashtrays in the charity shops!
Zorro- good plan. Technically the ashtray boat would be a completely free state of itself (international waters), too, so they could do whatever the hell they liked.

Perhaps we could bring it ashore every so often and dump drug dealers on it. Rapists.

Prison problem solved, anyway.
As we seem to be having the Trident replacement, maybe the boat could be used for target practice. It would be cheaper in the long run than stealing other people's countries. The world's population would be reduced by 20% and I could wear a pullover for two evenings instead of one before it needs washing.
Maybe they can open an Ash Tray museum in Milton Keynes.

They would probably get �10 million lottery funding to do it.
Somebody already has the idea of building an offshore boat where you live, see here:

You do not put the criminals and rapists on it.

You pay a lot of money to live on it, to get away from the criminals and rapists.
All the ashtrays will be put in the pub gardens

The pub gardens will be made into lovely little gardens with heaters and and canopies.

You will walk into the pub and ask 'where is everyone?'

Reply....'they're all in the garden'

Milton Keynes will have to wait

I kid you not!!
They can be used in a new game that I have just invented... Bar Frisbee.
LazyGun- Surely that wouldn't pass health and safety...
D'Oh! There goes my chance of getting rich...
Ooohhhh if you find an old malibu one send it to me
I think pub ashtrays will become collectors items in a few years.Get stocked up when the ban comes in and hey presto! make an ebay fortune sooner or later:-)wishful thinking?
They shall be brought together from all over the land and smokers from all over the land shall partake in the great building of an empire of glass for smokers who may come and go as they please, and smoke for eternity in one large glass house. There shall come a great God of smokers and he shall be named 'PUFF' and his followers and worshippers shall bow down to the great 'PUFF' and when the time comes for all smokers of the land to start this great build - all shall go up in a cloud of smoke!!!
This great God of smokers shall also be known as
'Smokey Joe'
Coughing Carlos
Tab-end Toby
but overall this Lord and his blessings shall be referred to as
The Craver, The Dumb and the Holy Cig'rette....
They should all be collected and stored for 50 years, when smokers will be very, very scarce (like dodos or Red Indians) at which point all the ashtrays will be unpacked, polished and sold on e-bay as cheap souvenirs.
Be entered into the Turner Prize

it could be called

Ashtray

RIP 2007

They'll probably be outsourced to India where the ashtrays can provide a similar level of service at a fraction of the cost.
