Christmas is coming to Altopia - though actually it's been coming gradually since the end of the summer holidays. One of its delights is scented candles. Mrs Altopia has a real liking for such things. The latest one is called 'Winter Berries'. It smells like something between a very burned Christmas pudding and a much used wellington boot sock that has been left to dry on a hot radiator.
I sometimes wonder how they come up with all these various perfumes. At the supermarket this morning we purchased some fabric conditioner (Which itself is something strange. When I was young people were lucky to have fabric - no matter what its condition.) Anyway, this fabric conditioner had a perfume that is called 'Spring Sunshine.' Does sunshine of any kind have a smell? Even more to the point, how can you capture and bottle it? I told Mrs Altopia to be careful in case it escaped in the car on the way home. Heaven only knows what would happen if a massive bottle of Spring Sunshine got loose in the vehicle just as I was negotiating a roundabout. Fortunately I was wearing my react to light glasses, so the glare might not have been too much of a problem, even if the heat had burned us to a frazzle.
