Tyke, interesting stuff. The 'double u...' usage is a piece of nonsense.

Sorry, I can't resist -, from your post, 'abbrev's' what? (As apostrophe monitor, I am ever-vigilant!

Thanks and I agree with Malone that it is nonsense. To me, the "double u double u eff" is the World Wrestling Federation. I have followed this sport for many years.

You get the same problem with ECB and LSE. Presenters keep rattling on without ever using the correct name for the organisation so you don't know if they are talking about (i) the official body for cricket or the European Central Bank, and (ii) the London School of Economics or the London Stock Exchange.

With your permission, I will "take this forward" with Tesco, "going forward".

Yes, jigjag, action that - the idea has legs. I'm glad I don't have to incentivise you.

@jigjag - "You will recall that Tesco e-mailed Stevea6000 to get feed back on their Tesco's' idea." ... Although that would have been great, the email I received was from someone referring to Tesco in that annoying way!

Delighted to see so many postings here, including ideas being run up the flagpole to see who salutes them!

Will their be awards? If so, we will see who medalled and who did not.
