A breath of fresh air

I should point out, with reference to an earlier post, that Mrs Demon does enjoy the occasional cigarette. And always has done, though there have been long periods when she hasn’t. Smoked them, I mean, not enjoyed them. But those who know us felt that one shouldn’t give the impression that we are strangers to the weed. But Mrs Demon would not wish to be described as a smoker. She is a non-smoker who enjoys an occasional cigarette. We have coded language for such eventualities. She is going outside /onto the towpath /up on deck for “a breath of fresh air”. We all know what she means. But we don’t say anything.
