Stupid little things that bug you

I had a conversation in work about five or six years ago now, with a few younger people who thought it was they (meaning the younger generation) who invented the idea of using acronyms or abbreviations for words until I told them my Dad used to write them on the back of letters he used to send to my Mum when he was away in WWII (SWALK, BURMA etc).
Yeah, but did you ever get a Valentine’s Day card with ‘SWABOS’ on :-).
