    LOL Fairy, of course not image I just thought it was quite comical as I've never used it before and can't believe the reaction from my hounds image

    Petrol......urghhhhhhhh, when I was pregnant my hubbie had to fill the car up because to the smell made me feel so ill!  

    Now my plant in the garden has been identified I can also add Artemisia to my list of smells I like, it is next to be lavender by the patio area and the smell in the summer is amazing image

    I let my Choisya grow over the path because I love the spicy, savoury smell when I brush past.

    I don't sniff but enjoy smell of curry plant wafting on a Summer evening also oregano they remind me of walks amongst the wild herbs in Greece. imageimage
