First ones I encountered were on the back of envelopes from girlfriends: SWALK sealed with a loving kiss or: NORWICH nickers off ready when I come home, and many more.


According to an episode in the Likely Lads PHILADELPHIA is one, but I never heard the explaination.


Overall they are irritating ruddy things.

Medicine used to be full of them in the days before access to information: In particular, to describe the appearance of someone who might not have any decernable syndrome but who didn't quite look right somehow, from FLK (funny looking kid) to NFN (normal for Norwich). But then the day came when patients were allowed to see their notes, and "the man" said that doctors were just being rude. A sad day indeed...

Cant bear them generally


You know once we were flying in the south pacific and on a small island in the middle of nowhere someone had written S O S in stones, we flew round to take another look at this vandalism & some joker was jumping up & down waving pointing to his work


"Bloody idiot, look at him trying to get our attention " so we pretended we weren't looking and flew off again. If he had the time to do that, then take the time to write something out properly. I really hate acronyms you know.

    • Blank canvas is best, people have all sorts of ideas/furniture/vision boards to get on with.  Clean. Crisp. Neutral. If anything, dressing with freshly baked bread, and flowers makes subtle difference. 
    • I'd like to post a recommendation for Jerry Oscar of H.F.U. Ltd.   Jerry has just completed the renovation of my bathroom and I’m so happy with how it turned out.  My bathroom has a strange layout (with about a quarter of the room/floor space un-useable due to the stairs underneath), but he came up with some great ideas that have really made the most of the space - somehow he turned the room into a tardis and made room for a bath (previously only had a shower) AND even given me extra storage. He's a magician!  I felt he really cares about what he does and treated the project like it was his own home. He was also great to have around – super friendly, easy to talk to and raise any queries or concerns with the project, and he was very respectful of the space. He kept his tools tidy and made sure the bathroom was still usable while he worked, which made a big difference day to day. He doesn’t cut corners and clearly has high standards.  I’m honestly so pleased with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for someone reliable and skilled, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jerry. He does kitchens too, and if I ever redo mine, I’ll be giving him a call.

    • These Gents are amazing, we asked them to come and paint our whole house interior and fix a number of issues from previous paint jobs. They are professional, clean up after themselves and pay attention to every detail. Their work is outstanding and I can't recommend them enough, Brian and Malachi are incredible. 
    • Fabion is an experienced plumber. I was connected with Fabion through an App when I had an emergency issue with my water tank in the loft. He fixed it.  He also came back to replace my taps in the kitchen. Since then Fabion has been able to help me with the following:  1. Putting up blinds - immaculate 2. Dismantling and reassembling beds x2 (30 mins flat)  3. Taking down big old doors Extremely professional. Clean - never leaves a mess. SO fast. Attends when he say he's going to attend. Friendly and kind.  I cannot recommend him more highly.
