It is Glastonbury Festival again. Or, as I am old, Pilton. I went to work yesterday, and there were a trillion crustys plodding through the tills buying Carlsberg Special Brew, White Lightning, lentils and UHT milk. None of them bought soap or toothpaste I noticed. And how can they smell already? They have only just got here, surely they should have had a shower before they left home!?
Mind, I might be teensy bit jealous. This year they got Amy Winehouse, Arctic Monkeys and Kaiser Cheifs. The novelty act for this year is Shirley Bassey. And I'd love to throw tomatoes at her. Also Lilly Allen is gracing Somerset with her presence. I'm still waiting for Miss Winehouse to give her a well deserved black eye.

I'll name my next post that instead.
You live in such an interesting area! At least the smelly people don't live there full-time. I'm guessing the smelly people don't use anti-perspirant/deodorant and probably think doing laundry once a month is sufficient. laundry soap optional.
The female half of the couple who owned the place where I house sat in Arkansas was ultra sensitive to fragrances,so I had to use this laundry detergent that she made herself. You have to really work hard with vinegar in the wash, etc, to get smells out of clothes without modern detergents. Or maybe I just don't know the right tools to use. The Victorians probably knew.
