Another new digit to become familiar with, another feeling of unsureness when handwriting a date and questioning whether you’ve got it right, and another Easter, another too hot summer, another colourful autumn, and, another Christmas. Let’s get started!

Do you recall the new diary, and the excitement of transferring birthdays, anniversaries and other events from the now well-thumbed and probably slightly grubby old diary. The anticipation of doing better this year, of achieving and of working hard, of passing exams.

Don’t do that now “the device” does it for you. Notwithstanding, “the device” takes photos and enables us to share them and to wish you a happy new year in a trillip * of a second. Happy New Year to you.

* No idea. Just liked the sound of it.
