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?

Queen mingerAnyone else heard the story about Queen Victoria? Apparently, when she died and they were preparing her for burial, they discovered that she wore a vest. She hadn't taken it off for years and it had actually been partially absorbed into the skin of her body. They had to cut it off her.
And she was the fecking queen! Imagine what the poor commoners must have looked and smelled like.
