Stench and conversation

Got off the train and the stench caused a lot of groans and conversation amongst those of us waiting for the lift. We all agreed it wouldn't happen in a trendy suburb. Told one woman I started a blog and she suggested I put notices on the car windows. It's tempting, but I know how annoying it is for some when they come back to the car and find a note under the wipers. I don't think I can do that! Maybe I can make up cards and every time I have a conversation (nearly every time it comes across the station) I can hand them out. What do you reckon?

Stench and burnt plastic

Yesterday the stink was really bad around midday on Glossop coming across the car yard I'm told. When I came home from work in the evening the stench got into the train while it was still moving and by the tme we pulled in and the doors opened we were smothered in burnt plastic smoke. I noted one woman walking along with her scarf held over her nose - very sensible!

Up the other way

I thought it had been remarkably fresh smelling recently - but today I found the smell again. The breeze has changed direction and the smell is now running parallel to the railway line across Glossop. All it takes is driving a different way home.

Lightly off

This morning, very early, the aroma came wafting across the station to the bus stops where I was getting off the 769. Oddly strange, it wasn't as strong as usual, only lightly rotten smell. I guess they are starting a fresh batch!

Yesterday

All my troubles seemed so far away
But no, the stench hadn't gone away
Looks as though it's here to stay ...

You get the message. The pong was so strong across the concourse at the station as we came out of the lift it was enough to make me gag.

Yesterday

The smell was across the station, mixed with the burned plastic smell. Got into my jacket and stayed with me on the way to work.

I am reliably told

The stink is back today.

Another friend told me the stink was across Forrester yesterday.

I smelled it myself a few days ago, but I forgot to post about it..... I'll try to remember more often.

bye for now..
