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.

Lame Excuse

Recording video evidence for the boy’s college course should have been done and dusted during the summer sunshine but, due to his “that’ll do” attitude and a plethora of excuses for missing events, it proved insufficient, necessitating first us attending some indoor track meetings (inconvenient but at least warm and dry) and then some cross country races in mud, rain and today a frozen field somewhere near Durham where he pulled up lame (or so he claimed) with six and a half kilometres of the seven kilometre distance still to go; we still managed to get some footage to hopefully bump up the grade – a pity there is no A level in excuses as he would have a nailed-on A*.
