The Bernard Series. Has a greeny tint to it, first impression was of a deep, dark, dank dungeon. Again this changes violently with temperature, becoming quite complicated and some fruit as it warms a little. Have been searching for a word for the predominant smell...how about 10 secs after a fully-loaded King class passes you on an upgrade...yeah! that'll do I reckon.

Kinell, it's gone all "bathroom cabinet" on me now. Can't take any more, shan't buy any more. Not nasty, but not me. Couple of yrs perhaps...who knows?

Perzactly. But with steam, oil etc.
"Grade" is railspeak for hill.

If you fancy a day out Mel, pop over to Didcot. They have a couple of the beasts. Also in the Swindon museum.

Now then, now then. Second bottle is really quite good. I think that having now been "Semilloned", the CB becomes less intrusive. Immediate aromas leap out of the bottle on opening. Mushrooms, changing rooms, summer rain in the woods. I think that this old dog is learning new tricks.

Day out - lovely. Didcot - not even with someone else's barge pole.

"Come friendly bombs and rain on Didcot".
A Castle or King in steam is an awesome experience, and you would get some nice new smells. Cranmore near Shepton Mallett is another site, or Bewdley in tother direction.

Clarkson not my type, apart from sense of humour when with the lads.
