We have just been talking about this at work. I have established that I am an EPE in the DRS of MPL which is part of EPI at the ICE.

When I was a little boy I always wanted to be an EPE in the DRS of MPL which is part of EPI at the ICE.

Explain your TLAs Brendan for I have no idea what you're on about.

[Brendan]

Jah there are only 4 people in this entire world who know (or care) what all those TLAs mean.

etd,cpt, is this a new thing? or has it not been around for years.

[mockney piers]

EDT's been an aeon I guess but I remember the CPT changing around the turn of the millennium. I don't think I put any timescales in there though.

[Jah Lush]

Some of the regulars in the CPT call it the Crystal, but then it does have CPT on it's frontage.

[Keef]

It's always been called the Crystal or the CPT. I think the owner decided to put it on the sign to copy the EDT, but my dad has always called it that, and that's what I grew up calling it.

[spadetownboy]

im here from 92 and they,ve always been the edt and the cpt so its not really a new thing,however cant believe no-one,s mentioned the mag.

[wee quinnie]

FFS!

[spadetownboy]

Tottenham Court Road is TCR chez Nero. I know it is not about ED, but I encourage you to try it out and see whether your friends like it. Or not. Nero
