                        to the Daily Telegraph, there is a new entry in the 
                        Oxford English Dictionary's list of abbreviations: T 
                        L ; D R I 
                        had never heard of it but apparently in urban slang 
                        it means:  
                        Too Long ; Didn't Read Fortunately 
                        no-one has yet sent me that message regarding a BB report 
                        but it doesn't mean that they (or you) haven't thought 
                        it.  So, I will try and keep this one brief. John
