(See examples below).

At the Academy in West Street an attendant used to come around squirting disinfectant from a huge syringe. Hard luck if you happened to get the full blast - they were never careful. The cheap seats at this cinema were at the front of the auditoruim, and so was the entrance to the men's toilets. Everytime that brass railed door swung open, the smell that wafted in made your hair stand on end.
