Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Plumbing

Our higgledy-piggledy house has some higgledy-piggledy plumbing with one or two issues, including a long-standing irritation of a boiler that sends hot water to the radiators even when the heating is supposedly switched off, and a more recent annoyance of a dripping kitchen tap that had begun to rival the Chinese water torture, so it was good news when the plumber arrived this morning; less so when he left this afternoon with the boiler serviced but still sending hot water the wrong way (pending his return tomorrow with another boiler part) – at least the new kitchen tap doesn’t drip but, sadly, neither does it deliver water above room temperature.
