	LMAO = Laughing my A* Off ROFLMAO = Rolling on Floor laughing my A* off LOL = Laughing out loud BTW = By the Way IMO = In my opinion IMHO = In my humble opinion PMSL = p*ing myslf Laughing FIL = Father in Law MIL = Mother in Law SIL = sister in law BIL = brother in law H*****K = h...h...house....that domestic cleaning things, a known swearword and banned on this site I***G the de-creasing of clothes with a lump of hot metal, also a banned word on this site LOL And before it gets asked, nudge is simply adding a reply to bring a thread up to the top of the page again. Usually the reply is just 'nudge' or 'n'. All these things help to convey the mood in which the thread is posted, as we don't have the smiley faces on this site. Oooo you can put a little smiley of your own :-) turn your head sideways you'll see it. It's a colon : a dash - and a close bracket ) A wink is done with a semi-colon ;-) Poking your tongue out is with a P :-P Blowing a raspberry :-PPPPPPPPPPP Surprised! :-O taken off the Abbreviation thread which is on this page at the moment!!

	There's a thread called LOL and lol which I've just nudged up the boards. About the 3rd post down someone's put a list of loads of abbreviations and their meanings. If you bookmark it you can look back at it while you spot new ones you don'k know.
