      haha – I actually quite like the smell, it’s the smell of the countryside 😀 But it smells because it contains bacteria that produce a gas called hydrogen sulphide – generally quite a smelly one…. It’s also one of those gases that you can get used to over time so if you smell cow poo a lot, you may learn to love it (like me :D)
