Funny you should mention the smell of freshly ground coffee Margaret. I was thinking the same. I've a vague recollection of the shop you mention. But I remember going in the Co-op with my mum in Manor St in the 1950s, and there was always that smell of freshly ground coffee. I've been drinking the stuff ever since. |

Bernard, I think it smells lovely, but I don't drink much coffee, the ground stuff tasted too bitter to me.

Disinfectant that they used in the boys bogs at school. Brown stuff that turned white when mixed with "water" :alright:

Oil, at the docks in Newcastle.
I don't know what type of oil it was. It wasn't the diesel you use for speedboats. On the rare occasion I do smell it, it takes me right back to 1971, and boarding the ferry to Denmark. I love the smell. Another smell I adore is pigs. Could be frrom the same holiday, when I was six, as we stayed on a farm, and I used to play with the baby piglets. |
