What if I opened a b&b and decided when someone turned up I didn't want to let them in because they were, i don't know ginger?

You wouldn't turn away a straight couple so why do gay people have fewer rights? A ginger person would be allowed to stay so why not gay people?

To be fair, B&B's are a tricky situation. If I opened one, I wouldn't want to allow smokers (even if the law says you can't smoke in them, I wouldn't particularly want a group of people smoking outside my B&B either).

Also, there's all those holiday places that don't allow groups of just 18 year olds... Is that age discrimination? I think people that own B&B's and the like should be able to choose who they want. You might say that's unfair to gay people, but surely it's the same for the B&B owner and their religious beliefs?

Also, if I refuse to let in a pair of Jehovah's witnesses into my home, am I discriminating against them?

But if the gay people haven't done anything besides be gay, there's no reason... but smoking is different ;).

But if a Christian couple own a B&B why should they be legally obliged to accept something that is against their religion in their home/workplace/property?

No, they haven't :P But surely the people that own their home/property has a say on who stays there?

Toilets are there to provide toilet facilities, so can I walk into a female toilet and that's okay?

A B&B is a business, but they're not offering jobs to the people that stay.

And just because the B&B got into trouble, doesn't mean that the law is correct, as has been said many times, gay marriage is currently illegal, so that must be wrong by your logic? :P

And you need to forget that sexuality is a part of this, and just consider that the B&B should have a right to say who stays there and who doesn't. For example, would they want a single mum with 4 new born babies to stay in their B&B and wake up everyone else? Probably not.
