Abbreviations - what do they all mean??

If you had children you would understand

Not seen that one before and hard to say without seeing the context. Might it be If You Have Children You'll Understand?

I can email you the list I have if you want? I used to update it and post it on here, Darren made it a link on the website but its vanished with the new layout

That would be great - thanks
