Smile! - # 08/79

It's early Spring and the strong, cold, easterly wind is blowing the smell of German pig manure over a distance of 444 miles all the way to the London area. We lift our noses and give our companion a quizzical look. Is that Germany I can smell? (FACT....listen to the BBC news....so it must be true). Whatever....there IS a smell in the air, and this morning Hamburg pig farmers apologised to Britain.

Cold weather and German pig s**t have not dampened the enjoyment of the travelling fun fair on Ham Common.
