Well it would probably be less random with an explanation.
Council for British Archaeology? Cost-benefit analysis? Canal Boatbuilder's Association? Or just a little tune? |

In my area of work it stands for Computer Based Applications with basically means software for data analysis.
Perhaps the notes Miss Ross has been playing on her new flute? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

I've just had yet another "driveway restoration" leaflet dropped through my door (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I *like* my drive. I can't see any reason why anyone would think it needs "restoring" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

CBA. I don't know what it means for Miss Ross but down here it's the name of a very large builders' s and DIY supplier. I should be working. My computer has been playing up and I have spent working time sorting it out. Now I am going to spend working time watching the France v England rugger match. Tomorrow I shall be in a work panic. |

Ooh, I caused some discussion!

My tutor told me to completely eliminate a term from my essays, as I used it too often. I duly took it out, but apparently just mentally replaced it with a different one, and having just reread, before my tutorial, it appears that I have used the same word seventeen times. That's 2.9 times per page.
Fabulous. I wonder if she won't notice... |

Does a layer of matt varnish over a later of gloss varnish result in a mostly matt finish?
For my sake.. I'm desperately hoping so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Is this art, or a violin/viola or some combination of the two? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

I have the weirdest cold ever. I have the sore throat, the painful ears, the edge-of-headache, the sensitive skin, the tiredness, the aching all over.
But I don't have a runny nose or a cough. My husband got ill first, and he seems to have had everything. Whereas, I feel dreadful but have pretty much no external symptoms of being ill... |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Sorry to hear that Maisie. Im sure my daughter mentioned there had been a lot of people with weird colds at your mutual place of work ! At least you can get discount medication.
