There is a beautiful looking canalside pub called The Anchor Inn nearby, looks like a typical great pub with lovely tables by the canal but I was mystified how anyone could sit there. I can only assume they worked at De Mulder. More than once I've followed lorries round there with dead horses body parts flopping over the top. I used to drive from Nuneaton to Atherstone / Dordon / Polesworth fairly often, and on it's day, that place was awful. Seemed to be a lot worse years ago though, I remember my dad always used to warn us in advance and we'd hold our noses if we were going past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It closed down, wonder why? Yep. As @mjmooney has also said, there is something very unnatural about the smell of a Subway store. I can't even describe what it smells like, apart form its wrong! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to work on castle Vale for many years (Minworth and the ST sewerage works being just north of the top of the estate) and I agree it really hummed in the summer months. Ironically, it seemed to get worse whenever they sprayed the odour neutraliser or freshener. I guess after a few years living there one becomes noseblind to it ?

Yeah, but I also assume all their clothes, carpets, curtains all gradually stink of shit too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Anyone that grew up in the 80s will remember an original Stink Bomb? Little glass bottles of yellow liquid and one usually let off in morning assembly. Proper rotten egg smell and would last for hours. No doubt they were made with numerous banned substances now, bit like an 80s chemistry set. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 1, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) In terms of a really bad smell, I'll go for an unwashed but used protein shaker that you've left in your gym bag for a few days. Rank In terms of smells I just dislike, you know that smell that your clothes give off if they haven't quite dried properly after you've washed them, or have been left for a while before you dried them? It's like a damp musty smell. I **** hate that and even the slightest hint of it on my clothes and I have to rewash them. I can't wear them. It drives me mad when I smell it on other people too. I don't understand how people either can't notice it, or notice it and still wear their clothes Edited August 1, 2022 by Stevo985 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Cod liver oil tablets/pills. In my first job out of uni I worked in an office full of lads all around the same age and with very similar backgrounds and interests. We used to prank each other all day long, someone had the smart idea of piercing a cod liver thing (the soft ones) and squirting the juice all over keyboards, mouses etc. One of the worst things I’ve smelled.

Jokes on her, she stinks. (We wash our own clothes now because we've ruined each others garments too many times) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
