You know what I hate.

[Sturdee]

Hubby for some reason this week decided we need to join the "civilized world" and bought a Harpic something or other.

Maybe hubby in a diplomatic way is trying to tell you something?

The funny thing is it doesn't smell while your in the toilet , only after you leave then go back in again
BTW I agree with you TL hate those overpowering scents that are designed to mask other smells

I'm sorry to point this out, Tea Lady, but you've just insulted every female over 10 in the world, and probably half the men as well.

Well sorry about that. (Although I am a female over 10 too so it can't be EVERY female.) In a straw pole of choir members (of a chior I use to sing in, funnily enough. ) 20 % of the members were allergic to perfume, and got watery eyes and/or head aches if someone else wore it. I have terrible trouble finding shampoo or soap or moisturiser or make up that doesn't cause me to die of hay fever. Even the "natural" ones are just as bad. (BTW, arsnic and snake bite are also natural so don't tell me anything about "natural" ) (Oh look another rant.)

I think he's trying to spare me HIS aroma. I know he means well.

I was thinking more of perfumed deodorants. But I was only joking. I agree with you.

Wife complains about it all the time every time I have an evacuation the cat starts scratching in its litter to cover what it can smell and I am forced to turn the fans on and open all external doors. Don't even bother to mention Flatuation.

is grubs who come out of the toilet and don't wash their hands, even after#2

May I suggest that if you put the dust extractor through the window and moved the inlet pipe to a strategic location you may be able to move sufficient volume of air to the outside world to prevent offending her indoors.

Yuck Even my cat washed her paws in her water bowel after using the litter tray.

water bowel

Isn't that called the bladder?

[Woodwould]

My FIL never washes his hands after he pees, so one day I tackled him about it, pointing out how unhygienic it is - he countered that urine is sterile.

I agreed that urine is sterile as it leaves the body, but that when in contact with the air, sweat and bacteria that lurks in every fold of skin down there that it soon becomes decidedly manky.

He still doesn't wash his hands, but when we have family get-togethers, I wait until he asks for something, then I ram my hand down the front of my jodhpurs, have a good rummage around and then pass him a bread roll (or whatever) with my fingers. He then asks me to pass the plate.

And I don't like being called a grub.
