The time-travelling demolition man Part 5

As he prepares for his return journey into the past, our time-travelling demolition man has a few questions on the subject of smoking.

It is almost time for Bob to return, whence he came, to 1974.   I am going to miss him.   We have spent a lot of time together and so I know that when he asks a question it is generally NOT to get an answer but to make a point.   I also know that each question is usually preceded by him striding towards me with a barely concealed grin playing at the corners of his mouth.   And that is how he is approaching me now.

“Come on then, let’s have it,” I say.   “What is it this time?   You saw a guy in a skirt on the bus?   One of your colleagues is off work with stress?   You want to complain that The Sun no longer has a semi-naked female on Page 3?”
