    While 'scunnered' is a very good word, I'm sorry to hear that you are scunnered :(:(

    Sorry you're feeling scunnered but at least you have a great word to describe it xx
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Morning Beanie :)

    I had to look scunnered up and this is what I found:

    A Scots word used to mean that you are world weary, down-trodden, and thoroughly bereft of any lust for life when these words and expressions are simply too inadequate to signify the magnitude of your slide into "sh**dom".

    I really hope you're not feeling as bad as that description :( xx
  • I feel scunnered today based on that description :( but at least I know why. I hope you feel a bit better today Beanie :).
