Word of the day
« on: 06 June 2011, 07:42:40 »

Petrichor:

The smell of rain - you know that oily, earthy smell you get when it rains in summer for the first time in ages - lovely :y

and i'll guarantee you you didnt know there was even a word for it (neither did i til it was mentioned on the radio just now) ;)

And here's me thinking it was :
"The smell of Petrol leaking from a goosed fuel filter ruining the ambiance of an otherwise beautiful day!"  ;D ;D ;D

I know what my word of the day weekend has been, but I'd be banned if I repeated it here.


I saw KBW on the D.I.L.L.I.G.A.F tour about 10yrs ago, enjoyed it thoroughly.  His support act was his daughter (who goes until many names), who used KBW songs, but twisted to make them more feminist ;D

Thought it was just me who liked the smell of fresh rain, usually when the sun comes out straight afterwards. :)
