Who was your most regrettable youthful crush? Mine, I should confess, was Danger Mouse, the brash swaggering hero of the cheap British cartoon that preceded Count Duckula. I suppose I was drawn to his masculine confidence, and also his affection for his timid sidekick Penfold, whose formalwear and cowardice I found deeply relatable. Many years later, I remembered my wide-eyed admiration for the character and decided to give the series a re-watch. Whoops! Turns out,.

Smoke, smells and greasy drips constantly bother her tenants, who run a city dairy.
The owner has asked for help from everyone she can, including the council and building management, but nothing has changed.

With two extractor outlets over the entrance, the upper half of their glass door is covered with black grease and oily marks can be seen on the ground.
