    I can remember getting the urge in work one day. There were only 2 of us in this particular office. Colleague was on the phone at the time and without thinking I just let rip. Colleague could not keep a straight face as the guy on the other end of the phone was asking wjat the h**l that noise was.

    the same as everyone else, not when courting, but once married, let it go.

    What about the other farts?

    I was brought up never to fart in public or in the company of other people... including spouses. Thankfully, my wife had a similar upbringing.

    My favourite place to pump is the car. After a day of holding in stress-related trapped wind, I brace myself on the pedals and let go! I'm always scared I'll get pulled over though. How embarrassing would that be? "Could you roll down your window please ma'am?" "Erm. Really, really not. Sorry officer."

    That is why you need a car with a sunroof. Pump away and freshen the atmosphere in no time :D
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    No!! Fart in the loo, PLEASE. Letting one off when there's other people around you is disgusting!

    If it hurts holding it in that's your body way of telling you that its wrong to hold in it. Farting loudly all the time is obnoxious but when your body telling you that hurts not too listen to it.

    I had this incredible urge to parp while in Wilko's a while back. I headed to the back of the store where it was relatively people-free in case it was a noisy trump, let rip with a SBD wall-shaker and breathed a sigh of relief.

    Then turned around and saw a small child standing right behind me with his head right at bum height. Poor thing must have thought I was his mother and caught the full impact. The look of horror on his face...

    Our dog used to fart and then spend time going round in circles to see where the noise came from!:rotfl::rotfl:
