    Serious smell of cabbage in Galway tonight, I've never smelt it before but it's unmistakable tonight.

    Petrichor is a gorgeous smell, up there with baking bread and ground coffee and not manky auld cabbage.

    It wouldn't be peat that ye're smelling, would it? With freshly cut turf this time of year, you can smell it in the air.

    No, the smell was all around the city, far from any bogs. I think it's decaying matter being disturbed by the rain and releasing spores or something.

    I know this goes against it happening in the city but in co. galway there was and is a load of sillage being cut and wrapped during a string of dry days, the smell only showed on the wet humid day after.
