Hello everyone,
Hope you are 'awap'![:) :)](https://community.versusarthritis.org/resources/emoji/smile.png)
'What is awap?' I hear you ask :?:
Well, 'awap' stands for 'as well as possible'. I used it in private conversation with our DD yesterday. It met her approval, such that she suggested we use it on the forum, observing that it saves a lot of typing, which is always good![:) :)](https://community.versusarthritis.org/resources/emoji/smile.png)

I like it! Are we not all AWAP? That word 'possible' is the key word there.0

Possibly we are all AWAP but I guess some will be NAWAP. Some of us have forgotten what's possible
(Nice one, Phee)
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

I think it's a corker, and am pleased you've introduced it, Phee, 'cos it was your baby. I also like FCOL - for crying out loud - another useful short form. DD (who today is NAWAP)Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

I tend to feel WISHFUP - Well Is Something Healthy Folk Unduly Prize
And WIJADIPOR - Well Is Just A Distracting Idea. Plough On RegardlessIf at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

Can we include GMS? (Give me strength)
We need to compile a list of these very useful abbreviations - they are bound to come in useful, especially if we distribute copies.
Sticky, you could include it in the Starter Pack for the tripe therapy.0 -
Hello again, all,
I continue to hope you are awap
Kirst, I love your enthusiasm! Extra tripe for you
Tezz, well, I'm not quite awap today, due to a lingering cold, but I'm hoping to be awap again soon; thanks for the powerful GMS, which I agree would do well to feature, with other abbreviations, in the Tripe Starter Pack 8)
sticky, thanks for 'nawap', or 'NAWAP', if you wish; and indeed, for the philosophical WISHFUP and WIJADIPOR :idea:
Hileena, always good to get a like from you
DD, thanks for your support and for the potent FCOL; I'm sorry you're NAWAP and I hope you become awap asap(sorry)
Best wishes,
