Default Smelly House!


After six months of painstaking work we could not get rid of the smell
of damp, we had a specialist in to provide a damp course to the stone
walls as the back of the house is below road level. We spent ££££££'s
on air-fresheners and plug-ins, we nearly gave up and moved but managed
to find a 'difussor' (sp!) type product, all you do is dip balsa sticks
into a fragrance filled bottle and the sticks absorb the fragrance and
fill our house with a lovely aroma. We are not sure if the smell has
gone now or if this lovely invention helps to mask it. It was difficult
to find, we stumbled on some at www.kiarie.co.uk

heh, the spams getting a bit pathetic. So rush out and buy another
stinker to overpower those damp smells. Dehumidifiers work rather
better.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember BibNBraces
m saying something
like:

of damp,


That's your feet, that is.

Paid him lots of money, too, I expect. You entertain cowboys a lot, do
you?


We spent ££££££'s
on air-fresheners and butt plugs,


Your sexual predilections are no concern of mine.

we nearly gave up and moved but managed

Look, if you're going to spam, at least learn to spell.

all you do is dip balsa sticks
into a fragrance filled bottle and the sticks absorb the fragrance and
fill our house with a lovely aroma.


Ah, the smell of money. I love it.

So difficult to find, you bought a few packing cases full and decided to
unload it to loads of mugs, you mean?
