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.

Cheap Day Out

A busy day began with mid-morning brunch at the Vane Arms (excellent as ever), followed by an afternoon drive up to Consett for their FA Vase match (a goodish game), topped off this evening with an Italian meal at Prezzo in Darlington (food good but music more intrusive than ambient) and a film at the adjacent newly opened VUE cinema (a very comfortable theatre and the film, Bridget Jones’ Baby, unexpectedly enjoyable); despite the full-on programme costs were minimal with our quiz-win voucher covering most of the brunch bill, a £3 OAP entry to the football, my wife paying for the pasta, and cinema tickets courtesy of an offer on my Nectar points.
