I honestly don't know whether to laugh or cry at this one:

Take your pick .... How about England 1 - Brazil 2 (round about June 2002)? Timeline's about right.sheddy said:'discovered on a sofa'
Mmm, I wonder what sporting final was lost by England, 5 years ago ?

Pete said:I vaguely recall hearing a tale many years earlier. Concerned a friend of a friend. Not funny. This was a young couple with two small kids, went to have lunch with a relative (I think it was the dad's sister or something like that). Anyway, they'd phoned the day before to confirm, no reply, decided to go anyway. No answer to the door: luckily the husband told his wife to take the kids and wait in the car. Then he broke down the door. His sister was hanging in the stairwell. She'd been there over a week. OK, not five years, but very nasty all the same. Suicide, coroner's verdict.

Roadkill is the typical cyclist's experience of what that smell must be like - in smaller doses. In summer, all too often, when I pass a dead fox or badger - one that's been there a week or so - and I can smell it fifty yards off ....Arch said:A dry skeleton wouldn't smell all that much - the really smelly stages are fairly early on in decomposition, from what I understand.
Abitrary said:Jaded, in some misplaced optimism, I saw you had posted, and immediately tuned in to see... possibly some sort of beatific insight, a whisper of hope.
A glimmer. A soul turning. A butterfly in spring....
