Word & Wisdom of the Week

Word of the week:

Larrikin

Originated in the "Black Country" dialect found in the area near Birmingham, where 'larrikin' originally meant 'tongue', thus someone who was outspoken. Commonly used in Australia/N. Zealand to describe a person who disregards conventions, a hooligan!


Wisdom of the week:


"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel" - Maya Angelou.
