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.

Wedgie

Setting off in convoy on our return journey to school I noticed under the minibus in front something not quite right, as instead of daylight between the offside rear double wheel was a revolving foreign body, which to the driver felt like a puncture; we both stopped to investigate and found she had driven over half a brick and managed to get it stuck between the two tyres, wedged tight enough to defy attempts to pull it out and prompt thoughts of either whacking it with a tyre iron or deflating one of the tyres, until eventually brute force (mine, unusually enough) won out and we could get on our way.
