Lawks

Is there is anything as blissful as jet-lagged induced sleep? The Blogg boys are currently inhabiting their own dreamland and I'll be joining them soon. They've done well so far - managing to sleep through to 6.30am on their first morning and going to school some 13 hours after arriving home from the airport. Lawks - as one email correspondent said in a recent missive!

Lawks reminds me of the word "larrikin," which was still used by the Australian press when I was there some 20 or more years ago. The next time I spot a hooligan I think I am going to cry out: Lawks! A larrikin!

Isn't 'lawks' just a brilliant word. As soon as I saw it in that email I knew I wanted to use it.
