Accordiing
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.
