Two darts stars have kicked up a stink by accusing each other of farting on stage and creating a “rotten” smell during a Grand Slam clash in Wolverhampton, UK. Scotland’s Gary Anderson and Dutchman Wesley Harms have each blamed the other for being behind the noxious air on stage as they met in the Grand Slam of Darts second round. Anderson ran out a 10-2 winner, but all the talk after the match was about the odour near the oche. “It’ll take me two nights to lose this smell from my nose,” Harms told Dutch TV station RTL7L, implying that the stench had been dealt out by the Scot. When presented with the accusation, Anderson revealed he had also sensed the odor on stage – but said he thought his Dutch rival had been the one with flatulence issues. “I thought Wesley had farted on stage… you can put your finger up my arse, there’ll be no smell there,” said the no-nonsense Scot. “I thought he’d s***, and I went, … [Read more...] about Farting row lingers as darts stars accuse each other of causing ‘rotten’ smell on stage
Why bad smell from nose
This is why Waterbeach smells so bad
A recycling centre in Cambridgeshire has vowed to stop composting if the smell from their site gets too strong during the heatwave – with an ‘odour monitoring officer’ checking the smell. Since September last year, villagers have been complaining that an odour which smells like "putting your head into a bin" from AmeyCespa's Waste Management Park in Waterbeach has been making them feel ill. The lingering smell from the site has previously affected a number of people, particularly those with asthma. The company plant recycles domestic garden and kitchen waste produced in Cambridgeshire into quality soil improver, available free of charge for members of the public to take and use back in their gardens. The Environment Agency (EA) visited the 400-acre site on Ely Road in July last year, and confirmed that the company "needed to do more" to control odour emissions from the site. People living or working near the recycling site claim that the smell has been worse over the … [Read more...] about This is why Waterbeach smells so bad
Teacher suffers from rare genetic disorder than makes her smell like FISH
A WOMAN suffers from a rare condition that makes her smell like fish. Connie Christy, 43, from Sheridan, Indiana, has trimethulaminuria, a genetic disorder that causes sufferers to omit a pungent odour. It affects the breath, sweat and urine. The mum-of-two has revealed she "reeks to high heaven" within 30 minutes of eating certain foods, especially fish and eggs, as her body is unable to break them down. Connie, who is a teacher, cannot detect the odour herself, but instead relies on her husband, Shane, 44, and sons Drake, 19, and Jake, 16, or friends to let her know when they notice it. Sadly, Connie recently revealed that she suffered terribly as a student due to the pungent pong. Her classmates used to call her "Connie the Tuna". It wasn't until she was 19 that her parents sat her down to reveal the reason why she emitted a continuous fish-like odour. Connie did everything she could do disguise the smell; however, perfume and showering daily just didn't work. It wasn't until … [Read more...] about Teacher suffers from rare genetic disorder than makes her smell like FISH
Why two young Brits quit their city jobs, took pay cuts and started new lives as fish farmers and dung shovellers
WAGES are stagnant, landing a decent grad job is a challenge and sky-high house prices can clip your wings before you get a chance to fly the nest... young people today do have it tough. It's no wonder then, that everyone seems to have their own big plan to escape the soul-crushing grind of the nine-to-five, perhaps by moving abroad, living off-grid in the woods or chasing that childhood dream of becoming a professional eater. A new life in the highlands But while most of us just waffle on about how much we'd like to start over again, Charlie, a fed-up graduate and a paid-up member of Generation Rent, actually decided to do something about it. The 25-year-old was working in a call centre in Brighton and thoroughly unfulfilled, stuck at his mum's while he saved for a deposit and searched for a job better suited to his interest in environmental science. He was also sick of spending eight hours a day sat behind a desk, telling Sun Online that he felt "like a battery chicken" … [Read more...] about Why two young Brits quit their city jobs, took pay cuts and started new lives as fish farmers and dung shovellers
Dad who suffocated wife and drowned kids stands trial: updates from court
The trial of a dad who suffocated his wife and drowned his two children is due to continue today. Sami Salem, 30, was charged with murder after his family’s bodies were found in their ground floor flat in Falkner Street, Toxteth. Salem admitted killing his family and dousing the flat in 25 litres of petrol, leaving the gas on and taking an overdose on Tuesday, May 30, last year. Residents in neighbouring buildings were evacuated over fears of a gas leak, but allowed to return a short time later. Post-mortem examinations found mum Arena Saeed, 30, was killed by asphyxiation, suffocation and blockage of her airways. Daughter Shadia, six, died of asphyxia, blockage of her airways and possible drowning, while son Rami, four, died from drowning. Salem denies murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility, but prosecutors claim there is evidence he was “controlling” Mrs Saeed and suggest the killings were “planned.” Salem’s brother, Nabeel Salem, told … [Read more...] about Dad who suffocated wife and drowned kids stands trial: updates from court
