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.

All Presents and Correct

My birthday presents have been drip fed to me this year through somewhat haphazard deliveries, which at least has spread the pleasure over the best part of a week: Thursday brought an unmistakably wrapped jigsaw board; Friday saw a glut of chocolate, sherry, aftershave and a DVD; Saturday drew a blank but on Sunday the in-laws arrived with port, cheese and biscuits; yesterday my high-powered readers’ lamp arrived; and today, to round things off, a box of eighteen world beers was delivered – so all gifts are now present, thank you very much, and very correct.
