    The whiff from a delicately buttered set of lacy panties, freshly discarded and not yet 'gone crusty'.

    That and cat's heads.

    Ah, it makes sense now.
    Some people have thought I was you before.
    Confused that I wasn't saying anything gross!

    You have a bit of a smart mouth on you.

    Mind your manners, when you are as well respected and thoughtfull as i am, maybe you can throw in snide remarks.

    You are a long way from that pilgrim.

    Riiiiiiiiight.
    Yeah, so you just read a whole bunch of weirdness into my post there.

    Bit of an oddball it seems.
    I like that.

    Good, then we can get on, perhaps.

    I didn't read any weirdness into your post, just a cheap cut at a respected poster.I didn't like that.

    No oddball here homie, Just an ordinary guy who cuts through the bulldust and cant that goes for debate around here.

    M'kay?

    Love the smell of Hydraulic oil and Earth. Reminds me of being a kid when my dad was digging the foundations for the wall of our house and i was sitting in the cab with him.

    Everytime I start up a digger and turn the first sod of earth it brings me back to that memory

    Zactly.
    That was not there.
    I just have had a few posters get mixed up with our names, and now seeing you post, I understood what they were on about.
    Tis all.

    Anyhow, completely off track.

    Emmm.... I do not find myself partial to the smell of dirty undergarments.
    But sometimes I like to smell the pillow.

    When it hasn't rained for days and everything is really dry. Then it rains, a light shower, and everything smells really fresh.
    And there is a particular smell off concrete when this happens. Nothing else like it

    Fresh cut wood
    new tarmac and creosote
    baby's hair (and that lovely sensation of putting your face against a baby's head)
    the crushed grass/tent smell
    printers ink
    leather
    daffodils
    Fresh cut grass

    oh yes, and that just starting to rain smell after a dry spell^^^

    You know the smell of the hopps (or barley I dunno) you get when you pass James' Gate and the Guinness is brewing? That smells bloody gorgeous, reminds me of when I was younger too and driving home from a day out.

    Interesting how smells trigger emotions and memories. I feel a bit sorry for people with a really bad sense of smell.

    It's funny how when someone else says they like the smell of their own they sound sick! :P

    the smell from perfume/aftershave shop when all the different smells are combined, used to love the smell of the sugar factory in carlow, the beet campaign was between october and december so when the smell of beet was around the town mixed with the winter air you always new christmas was coming, then europe started running this country so now we import all of our sugar, the smell is kind of like the guinness factory mentioned before but

    Someone wrote 'creosote' earlier.

    That smell takes me back to when I was about 3/4 years old when I got my first job. Workers were painting the fences of the estate I lived in with creosote and I went out to help them with a wee brush.

    My Ma packed me a lunch and all for work and the workers were really kind to me and adopted me as a kind of mascot for the days they were working around the estate.

    More innocent times fo sho.

    The smell of tomato plants always reminds me of my granddad. He used to have a greenhouse where he grew them and I used to help when I went to visit. Happy times.
