Ideas on removing the smell of smoke
We just had a BBQ.
However, as my window was wide open for the purposes of providing music, my room now smells like a chain-smoker's lounge.
Any tips?

For now I'm settling for a desk fan by the door blowing in to the room, and one on the window blowing out.
Might actually acheive something by next week.

Works like crap. Once it dries the pretty smell is gone. Though, it does MOST of the time but not always remove the offending oder.

the idea is to remove the offending odor, not make the room smell permanently like fabreze.
It works great on cigarette smoke though, so it should do well on BBQ smoke. (theoretically)

Avon aromatherapy linen and room spray. It takes away the smell of cigarette smoke (I should know, I used it plenty when I started smoking again and didn't want my Mother to find out) but doesn't leave a horrid smell in the room. Ace.

In the end, I sprayed a load of fabreeze in front of the desk fan on the window (the one by the door has been returned to it's owner).
I then opened the window as wide as it would go and sprayed a hall of a lot on the curtains (which stank anyway, as they were what was in contact with the smoke most of the time) and set the fan up to blow air over them.
Seems to have worked.
Yes, my room smelt like a fabreeze factory for an hour or so but now everything's fine.

Just start smoking yourself.
It won't make the stench go away, but you will stop caring about it. Incidentally you'll also be poisoning yourself, filling your lungs with tar, losing fitness and working yourself to increased chances of lung cancer and an early death, but that's beyond the scope of this thread.

Crude method, but effective.
