Word of the Day, should you need it, is ‘crapulence’ (18th century): sickness or indisposition resulting from an excess of drinking or eating.

Word of the day is ‘cancelphoria’: the joy of discovering that an arrangement you were dreading has been called off, leaving you with the satisfaction of not having cancelled first, and the bliss of staying at home.

"Saying sorry is always the right thing to do" says Denise Chaffer of @NHSResolution - there's still a lot of confusion about this.

Saying "I'm sorry you feel that way" is NOT saying sorry!
