Strange. I've never doubted your claims, I actually have never thought any of them seemed all that extraordinary. Cool, well written and fun to read....sure. But not implausible. Sorry you experienced that, keep the "long winded comments" coming, I enjoy them and look forward to reading them.
As for the fishmonger/office, must have smelled something fierce.
Fish only stinks if it hasn't been kept cool. A fish that stinks is a fish you shouldn't eat.
Know what stinks? Seagull poop. Keep the seagulls away and you're fine. I used to go out to the end of the pier to eat my lunch and read a book - it was fabulous. Now I ride past the redondo pier on my bike and HOLY FUCKING SHIT does it stink. They've got a jetty where the sea birds just sort of sit and crap all day and that fucker reeks a quarter mile upwind.
