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.

Minus One

I am used to my disaffected young learners not turning up, arriving late, or leaving early, but not until today had I had one stolen; due to a mix-up another tutor had (she insisted) been assigned to one of my pair and she was determined to teach him something in the good ‘tutorial room’ (i.e. cupboard with a table and three chairs) leaving me with the other learner and the less good ‘tutorial room’ (i.e. cupboard with a table, two chairs, and a sink) where nevertheless I was able to impart crucial geometric knowledge for an hour before finishing off with several games of 3’s and 5’s dominos.
