A link to this article was recently posted on

I can confirm that my LETNB seems to be getting worse. Sometimes it morphs into EETNB and, in extreme circumstances, LTTNB.

No, still lost.
Think the spectator article is onto something, seems to chime with what I drink.

You're right, stop drinking and start reading, I am perhaps a tad confused by the abbreviations.

The second part to assist with my comprehension of the first part.
Anyway I haven't stopped drinking and I still don't understand what LTTNB or LATNB mean. I'm going to keep trying, me and this Grahams crusted '98

Let me help:
LTTNB = a typing error by me after an evening of whisky.
LATNB = Late Afternoon Tasting Note Brevity.
