The Flatulence Factor by SthnPride

Heinz and Campbell…. Combined the two will give you enough of a high-fibre diet that you will have regular bowel motions and increased flatulence.

The Parent Trap by SthnPride

There was an interesting thread in the Chit Chat section of the forum this weekend about a Coach who was trying to do the best for her team, only to come up against the worst opposition possible…….

Quite frankly – she’s terrified every time she’s sick. What I’m struggling to understand is how a mouthful of water can be turned into a 5 minute retching session.
