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.

University Challenge

The time was ripe today for my wife (along with many other such parents) to undertake the challenge of kitting out for university our new student, which required dragging him around a couple of key stores (Wilkinson’s and Matalan, but thankfully not Ikea this time) trying to get him interested in colour schemes for bedding and bathroom, and what cooking utensils and equipment he might need (beyond a pizza cutting wheel); it took a while for him to engage but by the end he was throwing stuff into the trolley with abandon so that it had become less university challenge and more supermarket sweep.
