….what is that smell..?!

There’s an incredibly sickly sweet smell emanating from the bag I’ve just brought home from the shop. It’s irritatingly familiar but I can’t put my finger on it. Feeling slightly nauseous I’m loath to investigate. I pick out each item in turn and sniff.. They all smell the same.. but it appears that one item is the culprit.

I have accidentally purchased the very strongly scented floral toilet paper. The name ‘Flor’ should have given it away but for some reason I have forgotten the significance of this. This smell for me is reminiscent of too much time sitting in bathrooms in South America….never pleasant! I banish the paper to the shower shack… maybe it’ll act as a mosquito deterrent?

I shouldn’t really be surprised. My bread roll is topped with sugar but has cheese inside and the bird outside sounds like two alternating notes of a pan pipe. Nothing quite as you expect.
