      You're weird - I LOVE that smell!!! After rain in the summer is the best ever.

      I also love the smell of concrete - not because I worked with it for so long, but because as a child we had a house built over in Canada and we used to visit whilst they were building it and I remember the freshly placed concrete smell on day.

      We used to say when we were doing engineering that WD40 would make a fortune if they converted the smell into aftershave. Hmmmm......lovely. [I'm not kidding either - us female engineering girlies loved the smell of WD40 on our colleagues for some strange reason].

          Many an hour was spent trying to think this one up, and much fun had. I can't remember if we ever thought of anything funny enough.
