I've heard about dogs that can smell cancer but a woman who can smell Parkinson's? amazing!

[ichkeria]

I’ve just been listening to this lady on the radio but missed the start and wasn’t exactly sure what it was all about.
I gathered she went around smelling people but in a good way :-)

[Hazlinny]

Read about her - probably about five years ago.

I can smell bull ***

She noticed her husband smelt funny and he was later diagnosed with Parkinson's. It turns out that this lady was somehow able to detect it by smell. From that they have developed a swab test.

She's in great demand for chat shows.

Apparently. :-)

[Zacs-Master]

She can smell all sorts of other things as well, even water which has chemical contaminants in it, apparently.

Your obsession with Johnson has gone from boring to embarrassing, gully.
Time to move on.

Don't click on Bobbin's link. You'll be inundated with perfume ads. ;-)

//Your obsession with Johnson has gone from boring to embarrassing, gully.//

But nowhere near as embarrassing as those who still seek to defend him in the face of undeniable truth.
Crack on Gulliver, they don’t like it up ‘em! Lol.

Another interesting thread hijacked

Unfortunately people keep responding to the hijacker which doesn't help.
Back to the topic...there are also sniffer ants.

There's an article in the Guardian yesterday. Can't post a link as this tablet won't let me log in to the site for some reason, although I am a subscriber.
