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.

Gate Danes

Accepting to tutor a new pupil whose parents run a boarding kennels did not seem such a good idea when I found the gate plastered with dire warnings not to enter; I got out the mobile and announced my arrival which prompted three figures to emerge from the house; the smallest was my pupil’s mother, the larger two turned out to be Great Danes, one old and disinterested, the other young and all too interested, which meant it had to be hauled into its kennel (bigger than our new summerhouse) before I could enter without risk of being bowled over.
