Today is the last day of the year. Was it a good year or a bad year? There were many bad things for Cornwall and for me and my family, but there were good things, as well. Let us all hope for a better year to begin after midnight. Chase away the bad things with fireworks! And let us all read and write and speak and listen to more and more of our beautiful Cornish language.

Ma hedna ow menya moy liednow ha dilhas rag an jynn-gòlhy avorow. There is no limit to bad luck, so it seems. Am I pessimistic? Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them. We played hangman many times, and chess and cards. What do sick children like to eat? Perhaps a few grapes. But that was not a very good idea. Eleven o'clock, the lit...

Will I lose my right mind soon? What is next? The first boy was sick again half an hour before midnight, and the second boy was sick twelve hours later. Lots of washing. The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
