In French, the word for fart is pet - hence Le Petomaine, I suppose, but it brings a whole new meaning to giving the cat a pet - as if he needs more....

Then there would be that group the Pet Shop boys.

Which means that there are shops where you can buy pets.

And heavy petting would be way out there with the other no-nos...

Sorry, but it is actually 4.30am real time, and I'm startng to get silly.... ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!

Oh, and cul de sac literally means 'arse of bag'...... Thanks Aud!!
