If you click on anybody's name in the top left hand corner of their post there's a little drop down menu that shows up. One of the things on there is to "Send a private message to whoever". These messages are personal and private and do not show up on the forum.Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.

There's at least one poster who uses HWTHMBO (He who thinks he must be obeyed)pavlovs_dog wrote:how about one for the fellas - SWMBO (she who must be obeyed)!!!
DP - dear partner
SO - significant other (not used much on here)
MIL/FIL/BIL/SIL = mother/father/sister/brother-in-law
Never really worked out whether HTH meant Hope this helps or Happy to help. Both the same really I suppose!
Sorry if I've repeated anybody else...
It's like the personal ads - I think most of us are blessed with a GSOH (LOL)Operation Get in Shape
