Hello,

I'm a bit lost in some of the threads can anyone tell me what DS and DH stands for?

[Laura & CTB]

Well I think it's for Darling Son, Darling Husband etc - well, it had better be or I'm going to be very

[Guest]

DS - Dear/Darling Son, OH - Other Half, DH - Darling/Dear Husband

[Happy-Mama]

ah, I see. I'd thought the D stood for daughter

[Laura & CTB]

DD - darling daughter

[Goosey Lucy]

Hi and welcome.

 

Abbreviations confused me for a while. The ones I think I've understood so far are:

OH Other Half

DH Dearest/Darling Husband

DS Dearest/Darling Son

DD Dearest/Darling daughter

ES/ED Eldest Son/Eldest Daughter

MIL Mother In Law

SIL Sister In Law or possibly Son In Law

I'm sure there are more but hopefully this helps a bit.

PLease can someone corect any that are wrong?

 

Thanks!

[Goosey Lucy]

Must type faster...must type faster...

[Ziggy]

Obviously, on a bad day, or after a domestic argument, DH can conveniently mean 'Dreadful Husband' too

 

Sorry, couldn't resist

[Goosey Lucy]

Mine works away a lot so Disappearing might also work

 

Teenagers may be Delinquent?

 

And of course there are Monsters In Law (although mine are pretty good really)

[Happy-Mama]

thanks for that.

 

Is LSH Long suffering husband? I've been told that before but think i should check

[Goosey Lucy]

Only in their opinion!

[Ziggy]

Mine works away a lot so Disappearing might also work

 

 

Funny you should say that, mine works away a lot too, so 'distant husband' is how I usually think of DH...

[Tina C]

Actually - I have always wondered what Laura's CTB means - any ideas anyone - or perhaps Laura will oblige?

[Jules.]

I've wondered that too!

[Guest]

Well we could have a few guesses in the meantime!

 

What about Cool Tall Bloke?

[The Dogmother]

I think it's his initials, but I may be wrong.

[Laura & CTB]

 

Only the "C" is his initial

 

Nice try Ginette

[Olly]

Chicken Taming Bloke?

 

I'd always assumed it was his initials too.

[Laura & CTB]

Hillarious - keep going!!!

[The Dogmother]

Is it rude?

[Laura & CTB]

might be

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Charlie/Colin[insert correct name] the B*@#*d?

 

Only suggest that 'cos my OH got called H the B after booking a hotel for a lads weekend that didn't have a bar . Many moons ago - he wouldn't make that mistake again!

[The Dogmother]

I thought the same Vicki, but thought that Laura far far too nice a girl to call her OH that

[Laura & CTB]

 

Nothing to do with me! He got named it years ago when he was a despatch rider. One day he found an injured snake in the road so decided to take it to the vets. On the way it died so he decided it would be a shame to waste it ...........

 

one of his despatch riding buddies had just bought some new overmitts for his bike handles.............

 

so CHARLIE wrapped the snake round this guy's handlebar for him to find later

 

.................and the name stuck forever more!

 

He's a pussycat really

[The Dogmother]

Ahh, so it's Charlie the Bar-Steward?
