Smog pollution alert

My neighbour was on about this earlier giving him a sore throat but he's one of those Hong Kong Fuey Dudes who trains like he is trying to kill himself, Me I live on a diet of smoke & dog hair so it hasn't affected me. :p

I'm fine but my car is a mess.

It's all a conspiracy, poxy eastern Europeans filling the air with pollutants from their homeland and sending it over to us.

Then charging us in the UK £5 a pop to wash our cars clean of their filth they created.

Then they go and send the money they have made from cleaning our cars back to their country and pay no tax on it either.

Bloody foreigners! bleeding the country dry they are I tells ya!
 
The car is filthy and it's a little hazy. Being reported that it's at the maximum here in London and the South East.
 
I live in the South West and on driving to work down the M4 this morning, you can really see it. Quite strange as it's normally the fog which sits that low and messes your eyes up.
 
I don't know whether it is placenbo just because I know about the pollution but after my 6.5mile cycle in to work in Southampton this morning my lungs are a bit achy. Cycling along weston shore the view was also very hazy, pretty much the same as it was at times in China when I was there a few weeks ago. My glasses were also very dusty by the time I got into work so there is definitely something in the air :(
 
Walked from New Street to Moor Street this morning at about 7:30 and thought it was a bit foggy, standing on the platform at Moor Street and the sky didn't look very nice at all.

I usually take news like this with a pinch of salt (or sand as the case may be) but for some reason my throat as been really sore last couple of days like a really raw kind of sore, which i have never had before and i have no other symptoms of infection or a cold, i wonder if this could have a little to do with it.

Past day or so, I have had too. The scratchy kind of feeling you get normally just before a cold kicks in. Been cutting back on the smokes too, so can't be that.
 
The inside of my nose seems to have really dried out which is irritating and my contacts are causing me grief earlier in the day but apart from that I've not seen anyone drop dead from not being able to breathe yet.
 
Definitely noticing it, personally. I got back from Lanzarote yesterday and it's so obvious. There's a film of dust on everything that is not usually there, and the air is itchy to breathe. Nose feels a little raw, eyes are irritated and I had to rush for the train this morning and really felt it.
 
My car was inexplicably covered in brown stuff the other day, and it wasn't feces.

No, I'm not really seeing anything different round here. Must be in the air though.
 
The air absolutely stank during the morning commute to work - went through 3 towns and it was the same upon reaching work in Greenford, Middlesex. It has gone as I write this however it is very smoggy still and a lot of cars here are clearly coated in that dust.
