Thanks for the kind welcome, ianr. To be specific, the smell has been lingering for a couple of weeks now, if not longer. It's an unpleasantly bitter odour, with sharp notes of sour rot. I recommend having a whiff for yourself as it is quite hard to describe. @DulwichFox have you any idea as to what it could be?

I Live at the Whately Rd end of Ulverscroft..


There is often bad smells at the Northcross rd. end. Stale/Old oil possibly from Chip Shop waft in the air.


Other food smells on Market day can be very unpleasant but do not reach my end.


Discarded Fish boxes left opposite the Palmerston over night..


Not Pleasant ..

The hairdresser's on North Cross Road is nowhere near Ulverscroft Road.


I have never noticed any smell outside it.


What I do notice however is a persistent faint smell of gas on North Cross Road at the mural end, near Superdrug.


I have been meaning to report it for weeks.

That's a barbers, isn't it? Are they called hairdresers now?


If so, profuse apologies for my outdated knowledge :))

Apologies, I meant outside the barbers. However, I have always used the terms' hairdressers' and 'barbers' interchangeably - is that wrong? What are the differences? Who cares? Perhaps that's a topic for another thread... But for now, the scent still doth linger and spoil the fragrance of festive cheer! Bah Humbug!

Yes!! It abated for a while, and is now back with a vengeance. It smells like vomit to me.

I'm so sorry, I think the issue could be down to my small dog, or otherwise, me. He is a black terrier cross, and I'm blonde and about 5'7". He has a constipation problem and walks like a gunslinger while I have the opposite and shuffle like I'm trying to post letters on the Generation Game. If you recognise our description approach with caution, as by Underhill Road anything could blow at any time.

      The Telegraph and the other right wing media, do they hate Britain?

      By malumbu · Posted

      The BBC is one of the finest, if not the finest, broadcasters in the world.  They have been admired by many across the world for their journalism.  There have been numerous arrests since their recent expose on convenience shops that cover ups for criminals - money laundering, contraband,  illegal workers and the like. By no means perfect and some of what they have done in the modern world is questionable - the website often comes across as tabloid or sensationalist, as do some of their documentaries, and at times it is full of low grade game shows, fly on the wall etc which bring the punters and money, including overseas, in but is not quality TV.  In their desperation for 'balance' they've given too much air time and credibility to some more extreme views, which contributed to Brexit and some of the rise in right wing parties.  I wish they'd say 'the convicted criminal' every time they talk about Yaxley Lenon. The programme was clumsy, why it didn't go through proper clearance including the lawyers, I don't know.  But it created zero stir at the time. Zero.  And had no impact on the election, so Trump has no case.  I hope they don't cave in like many of the US corporations and media.  Oh and well done to South Park using the small p*nis defence in ridiculing him. What I expect is as the Beeb is pretty centrist in it;s reporting in riles some of those who thrive on the toxic populism we have seen since Trump mark 1 and Brexit.  How sad.
