I will continue referring to it as the BRB, which in mind stands for Big Rule Book.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Your mind and Dakka's acronym translation. I've always read it as Big Rule Book, too.

middle B was for black, we felt the framing was a black to grey, more black than grey.

Ah, I see. Like a highlighted black, rather than a lowlighted grey.

Funny, I always saw the framing as more indicative of the colour of the book too. The previous 'red' one was grey to me, just like the one before it.

I vote we call it "The Holy Book of Rules" or "THBoR". But it has to be said in a lisping British voice like Eric Idle's character for Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
