Called the Council as we can smell it too, apparently it is a big aviation fuel spillage in France and the wind is blowing it in.
Really powerful smell.
Incinerator gets let off today, not that it doesn't have its own smell on some days!
Good job on the Council Environmental Team for knowing about it!

BBC has a page about eh smell and spill in France
'Residents across Kent and Sussex are complaining of a foul smell after a massive gas leak in France.
Police in both counties said they had received a large number of calls from people worried about the odour.
A spokesman for Sussex Police said the leak was believed to be mercaptan gas - a harmless additive to natural gas.
The leak is being blamed on a factory in Rouen, 60 miles west of Paris, and many residents compared the odour to strong diesel fumes.'

Yeah Metatron. Gas doesn't actually smell, it was the stuff they add to it that leaked so people could be aware when there was a gas leak. They also make stink boms with it too. Those French knew Cameron was preparing his speech in the morning !!
