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.

Izaak Walton

It seemed a good idea to take a mid-week break at the Izaak Walton Hotel in Dovedale while the boy was at Leeds Festival (working not watching) and the location, when we found it, was idyllic with only one drawback - no mobile phone signal – which rendered our exhortations to him to text us regularly useless and necessitated a quick trip into Ashbourne (a pretty town) to make reassuring contact; on the plus side the hotel WiFi was excellent, enabling us to access the webcam to check out the cats in the cattery – only a pity the same facility was not available in the tent at Leeds.
