Please, no more discussion about channel shorthand codes unless it appears in a dedicated thread where other members can choose to post in (or not).

Posts should be comprehensible and if shorthand like B1 makes a post more difficult to read then, to me, it's defeating the object of maximising the number of people who want to read it.

"C4" and "C5" are widely used and understood abbreviations, "DHD" isn't. Simple as that.

Probably for the best. Could you or one of the other Mods move the last few pages of this thread in to the new thread when it has been created? I was going to create it but I think its only right that Tumble Tower creates it.

I'm nothing like him. I was only thinking how different we are at 7:41pm last Tuesday (17th July 2007). I was in an adult play area and I thought I over-heard someone call me a "Trucking Kick Shed" but it was difficult to hear as they had MTV (M1) on. I've been working on a system of codes ever since, which is the unlikely reason that I can only post on weekends.

So far....
Trucking = Hello.
Kick = To.
Shed = You.
Hello = Goodbye

has anyone ever said "Beeb 1" for BBC1, "Beeb 2" for BBC2, "Beeb 3" for BBC3 or "Beeb 4" for BBC4?


I do - all the time.

Not online though.
