Just had a cup of Tom Yum soup and a woman here thought the smell was a gas leak

[Sir C]

I let her panic about it for ages, tell the site manager and generally make a proper arse of herself before suggesting (just before he called the gas board and evacuated the building) that the source was perhaps my Thai beverage.

That said, it does actually smell quite a lot like gas.

Tom Yum at lunchtime? I'd try to avoid breathing on anyone this afternoon, lest they swoon away.

Fück 'em. I've got a very dull meeting this PM. I'm hoping my breath will curtail it.
