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.

Imperfect Ten

Microsoft’s determination, despite my constant declining, to update my laptop to Windows Ten is becoming worryingly persistent, and it nearly succeeded today while the computer was switched on but snoozing with a blanked out screen, as suddenly it flashed into life informing me it was 2% through the update and no amount of mouse-clicking, Ctrl/Alt/Del pushing, or router disconnection could stop it; at 5% I resorted to the good old turn it off and on again routine, which eventually brought up the old familiar Windows 7 Home Premium and the welcome message “Windows 10 update could not be completed, try again?” – no bloody thanks.
