Glossary of terms?

Post by grander » 25 June 07 6:35 pm

Hi All,

Not sure if this is the correct forum to put this in but....

New to the game and was just wondering if there is a 'glossary of terms' :?: as such for the accronyms(?) etc used in the forums?

e.g. what does TFTC mean?
get my drift?
thanks in advance!

I look at this and the glossary on the main site and neither have 2 of the terms left on the last log entry for my cache.

TTFN
BB

What do these mean? I am guessing that TTFN mean TaTa for now but what is BB?

If you're in SA, BB is Beakers Bunch - the team that found the cache.

Have a look at the Lexicon as well, it will give you an insight into the craziness of cachers.

Oh, and if you are in Victorie BB could be Biggles Bear, or maybe just Bye Bye.

TTFN

Edit: RTPA (Read The Post Again) & Saw you are from SA so Biggles Bear isn't an option.
