Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd June, 2025.

2nd June, 2025.

I am officially knackered!

Yes: it’s Monday.

And, as ever, I’m up early: so I can head for my weight management group.

Hopefully, I’ll’ve lost a few ounces.

But … ?

I’m feeling slightly more tired than usual … as I’ve finished my written review of “The Reality War”: and the accompanying video … 

Feel free to hit the ‘Like’ button.

I can head back to bed, once that’s done!
