Personal HygieneThere comes a point at which your hygiene becomes less your problem and more everyone else's:
My old school nurse never seemed to wash - instead she wrapped herself in crepe bandages from the first aid kits. The smell was beyond pungent. If you got ill at school, it was better to suffer than try and explain symptoms whilst only breathing out.
When she was eventually 'let go',they had to strip the wallpaper in her office to get rid of the lingering odour.
How scuzzy have you got? Or, failing that, how bad have people you know got?

steer clear of the pies...Had a flatmate who in all the time he lived with us (at least a year) never washed his sheets. Eventually the ambience in the flat was such that polite words were said (and they WERE fairly polite...the kind of people who feel that old Morris Marina seats make a damn fine lounge suite are generally not inclined to get too uptight about housekeeping). Flatmate took this rather badly and moved out. On clearing out his room afterwards we discovered not only most of the house plates (unwashed) under his bed but also a selection of his kid's disposable nappies, with contents. Said kid hadn't even been around for weeks.
The guy worked in catering. That was what really bugged us.
