After 32 years at the chalkface, I retired today. Working in schools is a very rewarding experience and there are many things that I will miss but I'm now looking forward to spending time and energy on all the things that are important to me.

Word of the Day is ‘hunch-weather’ (19th century): weather so cold it makes you hunch your shoulders when you walk outside.

Word of the day is most definitely ‘hurkle-durkling’ (19th-century Scots): to linger in bed long after it’s time to get up.

Word of the day is a favourite for this time of year. To be ‘crambazzled’, in old Yorkshire dialect, is to be prematurely aged by excess drinking or partying.

Word of the day (of course) is ‘scurryfunging’, from US dialect: the frantic attempt to tidy the house just before guests arrive.

Plenty of ‘bellycheer’ planned over the next few days!! 🍻
Word of the day is ‘bellycheer’ (16th century): feasting, gluttony, and ‘the gratification of the belly’.
