Mussels Kick Up A Stink

I fear that Moulles Mariniere, (mussels in a white wine sauce), for lovers of the seafood dish, may never again make the mouth water. Read on!

Residents near the Soldiers Point, on the Point Road, are hoping that the foul smell from the sewage plant there, and which has plagued the area for some time, may soon be a thing of the past.
The sh** finally hit the fan when angry residents could take it no longer, and approached the Council regarding the problem.
They in turn kicked up a stink with the company running the sewage plant, and it appears that 'officials looked into it'. Ugh!
The problem, it appears, was with the mussels used in the filtration system on one of the treatment tanks, and here we were all thinking that sewage system were extremely scientific.

Once new mussels are recruited/drafted in, everthing will be smelling of roses.

Now the similar smelly problem around Rockmarshall could hardly be due to the same problem, could it? Those pesky mussels not pulling their weight there either !
