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.

Campaign Over

The general election campaign reached the final day of its six or so week duration, during which I have refrained from commenting on the media hype, unrealistic promises, mud-slinging, misinformation, celebrity endorsement, childish point-scoring, and last minute entreaties to "vote for us to stop them winning" – mainly as having seen it all ten times before, I have learned to ignore it; at the end of the day (tomorrow) the vote will be cast, as always, on the basis of a party’s fundamental philosophy rather than its electioneering waffle.
