Horrible smell.     I haven't used feed'n weed on my lawn( not in Leeds) for a couple of years and it has been invaded by groundsel. If it has become extinct on t'other side of the Pennines I will be happy to reintroduce it!
It used to be said that the statue of the Black Prince had been placed in City Square , near the station, pointing South to tell all the southerners who've just got off the train to b****r off back down south!
