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.

Who’s Dr Who

With the local pub holding a Dr Who themed quiz tonight, and my experience of the TV series beginning and ending with William Hartnell and the Daleks, watched as a ten year-old from behind the sofa, I took a quick squint at the Dr Who website in advance and memorised the thirteen Doctors, twelve of the sidekicks and three of the monsters just so I could make some contribution; as it turned out just reeling off the Doctors quickest was enough to win the team a specially designed ‘Dalek Buddha’ T-shirt each, and though the rest of the research wasn’t called on, my teammates were on the ball for the next round, winning us a round of shots and a supply of crisps.
