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?

the smell of damp trampI used to work in a camping store during the summer. Everytime it used to rain, tracksuited scumbags would venture into the shop for shelter and to steal whatever they could. The smell of unwashed and mildly damp shiny tracksuit is something unique to behold. Musty homeless person would be a decent description but doesn't even begin to describe how, even years later, by merely recounting the story I can still recall the smell exactly. snff snff not good.
