2011 - A Rite Of Passage

I love the Inspiration point for this week (w/c 4/5/19) for a few reasons. One is that it gives the writer so many options; only the quality and the content really matter, so long as the year falls within the remit. Secondly, I have been alive for a good few of those years and I could draw material from any since about 1960 up until now. Finally, it stirred my brain into action like no other as I scanned the past for events and people to write about.
