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

Not quite sure who Suzie Dent is but I thank you and her (if applicable) for this awesome word that describes my perfect day.

Worth a follow for sure. I’ve watched her on the game show, Countdown for years as part of their Dictionary Corner but she’s an excellent author and expert of words in her own right.
