She who smelt it.

I just cannot imagine the embarrasment of having to admit that they burning match smell was from you, and it was not because you were a terrorist, but because you farted. I would die!

I have decided to print off a large coloured sign for the rear window of my rental car saying "Australian Driver. Beware." Now, which side of the road do y'all drive on again?

My British friend told me, back when she lived there, they had signs in the windows of drivers in training.

My friend moved to Sydney. From New York. She had to get right into driving around town, the other side of the road? And totally unaware of the town.

That is probably how you'll feel. Sorry. If I see you I'll be nice.

That's why I find a quick spritz of your Balenciaga (duty free of course) so useful...

What I don't understand is how she was able to produce the smell of a burning match without producing the pretty distinctive sound of a match being lit.

Perhaps that was masked by the sounds of her flatulence?

Airplanes can be pretty noisy,especially if she were sitting in a seat near the engines. And those crappy paper matches can be relatively quiet.

That would be a tough call...

Do I admit that I had atrocious gas?

or

Lie, and say I'm a terrorist?
