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.

Sutton Arms

It was with some trepidation that we set off for a meal out with the in-laws tonight, not due to the company, but because the otherwise modest Sutton Arms in Elton offers a notoriously extensive, not to say exotic, menu which includes every cut of every animal on the farm, types of fish I have never heard of, and an international selection usually only found on a world cruise or in a street full of takeaways (curries, Chinese, Thai, Italian, paella, etc.) and even a couple of dishes featuring fresh lobster; this is rarely an indicator of good quality so I played safe with Thai fishcakes for starters followed by steak and ale pie, which to be fair were fine, complemented by a pleasant hand-pulled draught beer – so in the end no complaints for my £20.
