    DH = dear husband
    DD = dear daughter
    DS = dear son
    OH = other half
    MIL = mother in law
    FIL = father in law

    Can't think of any others off the top of my head.

    Hope that helps.

    Cheers! I guessed it was something like that but couldn't work out what the benefit of calling someone 'dear ....' was! Must be a MSE phenomenom, never seen it anywhere else!

    Me too.

    Sheltered life? I'll say.
    During my teenage years in the early 60's I never came across/new of/ new anyone that had/ anything to do with 'drugs'.
    The word just didn't come up at any time, honestly.
    And I was a 'normal' teenager, going dancing etc.
