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.

Late Wins Recorded

With my daughter departing early to visit her sister and my wife and son both working in Teesdale supporting a school residential, I was left to my own devices for much of the day, so after a little housework I settled down for some live sport on TV – the last stage of the Criterium du Dauphine followed by England’s Euro 2016 qualifier in Slovenia - however the crucial last ten minutes of each had to be recorded as I was called away first to greet home one worker and then fetch home the other; it was a good decision as several hours later (having avoided all news reports in the meantime) I was able to view the concluding incident-packed minutes as live, with wins coming late in the race for Chris Froome, late in the game for England, and late in the evening for me.
