Default [Dixonary] Round 2913

Hi all

Tony's last minute vote for the correct def propelled him into the lead,
with 5 unnatural points. Efrem was the real winner, with 4 natural points.
A widgie was the female equivalent of the bodgie in New Zealand and
Australia in the 1950s (copying the fashions of Britain & the US). Larrikin
is just as well known here as copacetic must be on your side of the world.

Take it away Tony!
