🤣🤣 I'm glad you found out where the smel was coming from Phil! I hope Bushka and Midge appreciate what you've had to put up with all Summer! But, we are slaves to our cats! When we go to Perranporth most days, there is always 'that smell' about. Sometimes we walk through it on the pavement!! It is a horrible smell isn't it. Thanks for the comical vlog!!
Lol! You haven't been moored up in Nantwich have you! 🤣 There is one boat I walk past quite regularly and it nearly knocks me out, the errrr herbal smell is that strong! 😂😂😂
Interesting. Who knows what they throw into the vat when they're making low cost carpets. I remember a mate of mine extolling the virtues of the 'miraculous' Hemp plant and how the fear of the population being permanently stoned had put the mockers on the industrial growing and use by manufacturers of hemp. We both worked in a safety critical industry with annual and random D&A testing, so the guy wasn't approaching the subject as a consumer. With recent relaxations in laws perhaps there's a glut of the very strong fibrous parts of the plants and that's being shipped by the container load and used as a filler component.
If you on your travels Phil ever come across a shop that sells carpets they often have books with sample carpet types that go out of fashion and they stick them out with the rubbish, if you could hold of one those there's all sorts of uses they come in for I had a couple that I have used cover wooden seats one of them is under my telephone so it doesn't get pulled off the desk another one which is whipcord for office use which my Mog uses as a scratching pad.
Where i live, smoking weed has been legal for 10 years, which neither is a bonus nor a bother. It's if really pungent, that can rankle. Who knows what's in the carpets ? Interesting feature for your cats 🐈, not thought of that before
I’m glad that’s cleared up, my imagination was running riot - ghosts smoking weed? Maybe the cats had found a cannabis farm and rolled around in it? 😊😆
My first thought was carpet made from hemp… this vid did make me giggle though.. when I was young you could go to jail for lots of years if you got caught with weed… now, when I go to pet sit at my daughter’s homes, one says ‘don’t eat anything from this drawer’ and the other one says ‘don’t smoke my MJ while we’re gone’ !!! Like I would😂 I first made this comment on the fb page then worried that it would show up to our fb friends and family so I had to delete it real quickly, just in case.. the girls would be horrified… I’m to old to care😕
Great story Phil. At least you solved the mystery in the end....😂
Storytime with Phil is always great and happy you found what smell was.
Glad you solved the puzzle Phil 😂❤

It's an unusually strong smell.

It's not unusual to catch a whiff of the stuff around boats, but no more common than anywhere else I would say.
Glad you figured that out , thats very funny,😂
Now you can go back to watching the world. 😊
That's the plan. ;-)

The agricultural form of hemp has virtually no THC, so no danger of intoxication. I cycled past a field of it once.
I wondered where the name weed mat came from, now we know.
You should have cut some off and put it in a rizla.
You could have made a fortune bring a rug dealer! 😂
I've still got the other rug. I could grow some more!

I was beginning to have fantasies along those lines also.

lol bill and Ben …….weed!
It was a very similar smell.
Was the carpet shop run by the Fury Freak Brothers 😂Maybe something to do with Fat Freddies cat😂Phil you just made me feel 50 years younger 😂😂❤
A hemp fibre carpet?
Possibly?
@ hemp fibre does take on a distinctly “herbal” smell when wet… so that may be the reason.
😂❤
Meanwhile towpath walkers think you are a dope user,🤣🤣🤣
No one ever said anything... perhaps they were too scared to? ;-)
Comical. At least the mystery is solved.
