We've got a can-o-worms and they don't smell - they've even been 'professionally house moved', twice, with no problems!
Yep, someone from Environmental Health came due to the complaint. He did say that more than half the time they're called out for malicious reasons and that even if I had spread the manure it wouldn't really have been a problem, but they are duty bound to follow everything up. As for the farming, my mum lives in an area where there are 'country smells' all the time, no-one would dream of complaining, but here it seems as if people expect everything to smell of rose-water.

Mrs Bond - thank-you.
