I wish I lived near a leisure centre so I could smell chlorine all the time. My second favourite thing in Swindon is walking past the gym towards Cineworld and getting a lovely big smell of the chlorine from the swimming pool there  http://www.seppo.net/seppocartoons/images/chlorine.jpgMy old man works for a company that sell swimming pools and stuff, I'll have to ask him to bring me some small samples to keep my urges at bay. Otherwise you may see me camping on Greenbridge. |

I like licking my arm or hand after going for a swim, you know after a few hours or so, then getting the smell of chlorine. Nice.

SY have you tried Milton Road Baths......chlorine aplenty in an authentic Victorian atmosphere.
In Station Road there is the Southern Laundry......which when you walk past, you got a blast of hot bleaching linen.
I always associated this with away games and football specials when I was a kid through to youth..........to my knowledge its still there and still smelling.

Is it true that if you've got highlights, chlorine turns your hair green? Or is this just a myth?

yeah i like that smell too
stfcfan, not exactly it depends. Chlorine can turn your hair green whether its dyed or not....depends on whether you was your hair thoroughly and with what you wash your hair with. It also depends on your hair. I have highlights and it doesn't effect my hair at all.

One of the worst smells is a crappy nail bar stall in 'The Centre MK' I walk past at lunch times. I have to hold my breath it's so bad. :chunder:
