She's certainly a healthy looking girl. Doesn't appear to own many clothes?
'Insta' as in Instagram? Surely that's incredibly council.She's certainly a healthy looking girl. Doesn't appear to own many clothes?
I still don't know what the sentence means.
Council.

I grew up in Guildford and the walk from the bus station, up North Street to the top of the High Street incorporated Fogwills Seed Merchants (lovely organic earthy smell) to the hops from the Friary Meux brewery to Importers Coffee Roasters at the top of North Street.
I don’t remember the Fogwills smell, only the name, but the Friary Brewery smell and Importers coffee roasters (sometimes with smoke pouring from the extraction fan) are still with me.
Swerving back to rancid pongs, I used to drive past Humko flour products, which used to flush/clean out their tankers once a week. Talk about a rancid honk, I was obliged to put my foot down...in a Bedford CF van. This didn't do anything spectacular and all I could do was slide both cab doors open once out of range to clear the retchsome stink ASAP.

Apologies if this has been posted before (which in itself is probably ‘council’), but does this count as ‘ultimate council’?
I have a lot of want for that.In fact that plus those pink girls would do me just fine. I'm not ashamed of embracing my or their council...
Oh and I don't think people making money off OF is council, it's the people who are paying who fall into that bracket.

No, a very easy mistake to make but it’s actually the Austin Powers shagtastic bachelor range, updated for the 21st century.Back to factory smells, I used to work next door to the KP dry roasted peanut factory in Rotherham, very savoury.
Currently refitting the chocolate factory in York, although the finished product is unsweetened, and rather bitter. Smells nice though.
Occasionally work at the petfood factory next to the big Ikea in Birstall, that stinks, but not as bad as De Mulder's in Doncaster...

Ewww, the Bridgwater smell ! Always used to wind up the windows when we got near !
I had the pleasure of not only working in Bridgwater for a couple of years, but having to go to the BCL plant a few times. The smell doesn’t get any better with increased proximity.Someone also mentioned Avonmouth - that smell I still remember, almost taste, and it’s got to be going on 30 years since I was last there. Smelting works, I think.
We lived at Severn Beach for a while - Council AF. My dad worked at ICI Severside for many years, his dad at the brickworks (Severn Valley Bricks??). My mum and her dad both worked at Sevalco at different times.
Other nicer smells were the Courage brewery in the centre of Bristol, and the old Fry’s factory at Keynsham (me and my brother both played for Somerdale whilst kids) whilst the Wards Brewery on Eccelshall Road in Sheffield never quite got the taste buds going.
