Subject: RE: Folklore: Trump=Fart in folk speak
Whilst whist players do indeed trump, poker players have a run and a flush, but bridge players only drop one occasionally.

Seriously, in Hull at least 50 years ago 'pump' was only slightly ruder but more common than 'trump' and 'fart' was a definite swearword.
