I used to go round and play with a slightly older kid called Mark (who showed me the film Alien - it scared the hell out of me!)<BR/><BR/>The smell was quite distinct. The family were called the Lothams and - at the time - I named it <I>The Lotham Smell</I>.<BR/><BR/>Oh and – regarding the flat - thanks, man. I'm OK. I'm not really superstitious, but they say things happen for a reason. Maybe I'll now find a much better, bigger place (that isn't jinxed) in an even better location. For a tenner.<BR/><BR/>I deserve some f'ing good luck anyway.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795718607403327664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16609686.post-91496453036682093692007-02-27T21:06:00.000+00:002007-02-27T21:06:00.000+00:00I couldn't really be arsed with Notes on a Scandal...I couldn't really be arsed with Notes on a Scandal. I quite liked that Edward Bunker novel you lent me though. Gratifyingly bleak final page.<BR/><BR/>I remember being fascinated by the smell of other people's houses when I was a kid. Your old house in Heaton Moor always smelt of coffee and English Bull Terrier.Zeno Cosinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07397459875509173660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16609686.post-58638971353600892142007-02-27T18:12:00.000+00:002007-02-27T18:12:00.000+00:00Yeah.. the person who owned it did sort of turn th...Yeah.. the person who owned it did sort of turn their nose up at it in a sniffy kind of way, saying:<BR/><BR/>"..bit of a girl's book"<BR/><BR/>And she's a girl!<BR/><BR/>S'good though.
