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.

Red Riding Hood

Being the driver for the school trip to Hardwick Country Park generally means a good day out and today was no exception, with the weather mild and the multi-coloured leaves plentiful to collect and later stick on paper crowns; another highlight was hearing and re-enacting the story of Little Red Riding Hood (the sanitised version for five year-olds where the wolf just gets knocked unconscious by the woodcutter and transported safely to the wolf reservation and grandma is found locked in a cupboard) which had to be performed six times by my group of six boys as they all wanted a go at being the wolf but could only do so on condition that they agreed to also take a turn at being Red Riding Hood.
