Oh I see !  Royal Botanic Gardens !  And in Sydney too !   Isn't there also one in Melbourne and Brisbane and Hobart and Adelaide and Perth and Darwin, to name a few.  Sure makes it easier once we understand that.
 
I did work out the PO for myself.

I think Ricki was trying to make that point exactly.  Non-Sydneyites (like me) were probably totally bemused by the use of RBG, and some people might have missed the significance of PO for Pied Oystercatcher.

Acronyms are fine, but please ensure that any acronym that you care to use
is defined in the first instance e.g.:

    There is one there, also one down by the QVB (Queen Victoria Building.)

That should ensure that both the illuminati and the plebs know what it is
that you're on about.

Thanks,
