Just had 2 big sweet Murcott mandarines for morning tea. They're on special at Coles. Now the whole reception area is scented with mandarine aroma.
Just sayin lol.

Customers/clients come into reception and smell food?
Better to smell like manderins that smelly old socks.
I don't mind the smell of manderins. This office smells like damp at the moment. Got storm damage a few weeks back ond yesterday afternoon a smell set in and I haven't worked out how to kill it yet. I'm thinking bicarb and vinegar. I know I would love a manderin smell about now 😄

No, I haven't been to icy's reception area. I have worked in lots of offices though, andit was a given not put food scraps, fruit peels in waste bins by your desk. As I posted above we weren't allowed to eat at our desks anyway as a staff room was provided for breaks, which is fine by me.
Be hard to talk on the phone with a segment or half chewed portion of mandarin in ones mouth.
Is there carpet on the floor karliaJ? Is it a 'wet dog' smell?

I don't think there is any underlay. The inner ceiling cracked when the roof leaked and it still has a slight drip even thought the guttering and roof was repaired. It gives me a headache.
