May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hi. Can we please add the following to the official list of Acronyms / Abbreviations? I would not like people to get the wrong impression:

FUIC = Farmers Union Iced Coffee.

It's an Aussie male thing available every where in Oz. Think it may also be sold in NZ as well.

Can't buy it here in WA Ted -  my neighbours across the road are from SA and always bring esky's full of it back with them no matter if they are driving or flying  :D

Is it SO - significant other? 
I'm not a fan of partner (sounds so committed),  I like boyfriend better, sounds more fun!  Wish I had a boyfriend, oh wait I do, he's really noisy and can purée lettuce  ;)

Or maybe it should be NQSSO ? -- Not quite so significant other  :D :D :D

I am soo glad I found this thread.  My poor old brain has been working overtime trying to worl out a lot of the acronyms used here.

The one that had me stumped the longest was EVOO.

Most others became apparent when read in context with the discussion,  But all this talk about EVOO and how much it was used. 
Still trying to figure out how to get the smilies onto the page without typing them.  :-[

All you do is click on the one you want Rosie  ;)   It will show as a symbol on your typed post but will be a smiley when you click 'post'

Rosie EVOO caught me out too till very recently, then it suddenly clicked and I had a "duh, of course" moment.

I'm glad I read this thread too. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that didn't get EVOO.
