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.

Waitress Wait

A meal at the recently renamed Hammer & Pincers pub provided good food but some dilatory service, mainly as the owner/manager was trying to cover all the front of house bases herself – meeting, greeting, seating, taking orders, delivering meals and removing empty dishes – and in doing so giving an impression of a circus plate spinner; twice she arrived at our table to take the order and twice raced off to attend elsewhere before we could spit it out, so that when she arrived back the third time it was a case of “tell her quick before she disappears again”.
