The thread on best and worst smells reminded me of an experience I had which others may find amuzing and be able to cap.
I used to regularly visit an aged lady with failing sight, and always (as a means of bring the meeting to a polite close, I suspect) she's offer me tea, totter off and return with a tray, teapot, milkjug and cups. There was something about the tea - I am an Earl Grey man myself, so I was not about to question her blend.
One day she'd settled back into her chair and was about to pour when she realised she'd only brought one cup. She asked me to go fetch another, which I'd find in the kitchen sink.
Off I went and there indeed was a china cup in the washing up bowl, together with a pair of her drawers.
YUK!!!
