Hi,
This is a bit light hearted, but I have been struggling with some of the abbreviations that some of you use in your postings. It maybe Im being a bit thick or the MG fog has set in! I know when I used the phrase Boffin myself that caused quite a stir! I'll admit it took me a while to understand what Dx meant! The one Im struggling with at the moment is BTW ! What is this short for..... Sorry Love Rach Confused in England xxx |

Well I am one of the ones who doesn't know what Boffins are. I thought it had something to do with the elder members of the group. Is that right?

Kendra, Boffins is an English term (Rach is from England) that means "super smart people." Or scary smart.

Thanks for explaining it! I had come up with all sorts of ideas of what BTW was. Some not repeatable.
Having a really crappy day so thanks for the laugh. Have been in bed all day, I rarely do this as I will stay out of bed for as long as possible, rather than give in. Thanks Love Rach |
