“If the plant has been there for over 80 years why do so many people choose to live there if they dislike the smell so much? I imagine the substance you believe is being used on the fields can only be either rendered animal parts or refined oils both of which aren't used in this manner and to be honest I doubt there is a secret operation in play due to strict environmental regulations.”

“Awwwwww, did the nasty men disagree with you and hurt your feelings ex scallywag? Poor little lamb.

Aubrey Hughes' plant stinks. It's a truly vile nausea-inducing smell at times. Which is why I choose not to live near it. What I certainly wouldn't do is a buy a house on its doorstep and then spend all my time whining like a stuck pig about the stench.

As to the conspiracy theories - why not share them with The Environmental Health Department of the local council if you have genuine concerns, rather than bleating on here?”

“Ha! You think that's bad. www.aaa.si
Quite why these things are put near people is a mystery.”

“skellyman you are talking alot of sense people like the BIG mouth missouri marten and the other idiot anou....who works for this stink bomb of a factory should take a serious look at the health reasons surroundings this awfull smell that burdens alot of people., who would not usually complain and live near this stink bomb factory of animal guts and gluck”

“Donna, your Father has a lot of guts working at this factory (forgive the pun). I hope they get up and running again, and dad brings home the bacon (again, no pun intended) for you all. Dad certainly must have a good stomach to work in this kind of environment.”

“Also i would like to say thanks to the villagers that have given a lot of positive comments...peoples livelyhoods are involved in this fire.”

“My dad works there and we are just glad that no-one was hurt....”

“The factory was built away from urban areas. But people must have been attracted by the so called smell. If you want to blame anyone for you buying a property in skellingthorpe look at the property developers .”

“I live on Doddington Park, if the wind is in my direction, then yes, I can smell the factory, but I don't find the smell particularly obnoxious. I was born and brought up in the country, where farmyard smells are in the air quite alot of the time.
I also live quite near to Damon's and love the smell they put into the atmosphere.”

“i work there whats everyones problem if you dont like the smell move noone forces you to live there i looked 6 months to get a job can u really say put more peoplke on the dole we need as much work out there as we can”
