Back during World War 11 - written on the backs of envelopes NORWICH reveals our parent’s were quite, naughty too. In a roundabout way, saying,“Get ready to screw”- I never had a clue; Mum knew “kNickers Off Ready When I Come Home”. I thought NORWICH- was where Dad was located. Handy ACRONYM sadly outdated

I've always liked H.O.L.L.A.N.D because I'm a bit of a softie. :) Great poem SuZ. I'm glad I checked in. Cheers - Gary

So glad you to hear from you again, Bill: We just got home, driving for two days from Florida. Sure feels good to be back. Now I will have more time for writing and creating and won’t write trite stuff like this LOL SuZ

Wow, that's amazing! ... What a poison can loin if he's curyus!... As for me, I thought that Norwich meant Norwich, CT -- right next to Sandwich, IL. ~ Mr. Know-it-all (and then some). lol.

Hi Suzanne. This takes me back some decades. We also used: BOLTOP, SWALK, SIAM, CHINA, BURMA, ITALY and others. Tony

Hi Tony: The only one I am familiar with is SWALK. They all sound intriguing . Now we have texting and the abbreviations for those would take a tech course to figure them all out. SuZ
