Not sure if this has been posted not, but here's some odd news:

Bosses at Thorpe Park say that during hot weather, the number of visitors moaning about B.O. rockets, especially on rides where people put their arms in the air.

As a result they have installed "Say no to BO" signs next to the rides along with an image telling them not to raise their hands.

Staff have also been issued with deodorant sprays for particularly smelly customers who will also be asked to sit at the back of the carriage so other riders do not have to travel through their pong. Experts say roller-coaster riders suffer worst body odour because while they are queueing they release more adrenaline and therefore sweat more than usual.

The new rule only kicks in when temperatures are above 25C.
