My dad had a response to any complaints of his farts -
"Let the wind go free and be shamed, or blast your 'puddings' and be lamed"

No Retlaw.......I mean, it is obvious when he has let rip because he smells his bum with a satisfied look on his face......I don't have any intention of smelling his bum...or mine for that matter.........I cannot, just cannot break wind in public(and that means in the presence of anybody)....I have to take myself off to the loo...it is just how I am.
We all have our little eccentricities!

I seem to remember a similar "brussel sprout famine" rumour doing the rounds about this time last year. I was genuinely concerned at first but eventually realised that's all they were.....rumours!

I think it all a ploy by the Brussel Sprout Marketing Board...to get us to want sprouts with our Christmas dinner.
