Personal HygieneThere comes a point at which your hygiene becomes less your problem and more everyone else's:
My old school nurse never seemed to wash - instead she wrapped herself in crepe bandages from the first aid kits. The smell was beyond pungent. If you got ill at school, it was better to suffer than try and explain symptoms whilst only breathing out.
When she was eventually 'let go',they had to strip the wallpaper in her office to get rid of the lingering odour.
How scuzzy have you got? Or, failing that, how bad have people you know got?

WaiterThere's an Indian in Aberdeen that we go to. A LOT - I mean usually twice a week - they know us well and always produce our drinks quickly - Strangely enough, the bill ALWAYS comes to about £23...
They sometimes go for traditional attire, you know, like a big long dress (Perhaps I should have put that in the last QOTW...)
Anyhoo.
Last time, of of the waiters came over, stood next to me too, I was at an unfortunate part of my breathing cycle and had to inhale deeply.
And inhaled a lungful of the most pungent, rank, disgusting, vile, sweaty clothes smell I've smelt in a long time - I audibly coughed and retched. My fellow diners didn't notice and suggested I was making it it.
When he came back though, they all got a proper wiff as he stayed a bit longer - it was completely disgusting.
On the funny side, 3 grown men holding their breath and coughing and retching like children was really rather humurous!
