Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-5-2018: Paramount

8th May, 2018.


Really: that was a bank holiday weekend I’d find hard to forget … !

For starters?   Well Mark Williams won his third World Championship final.

Which I’m sorry to say missed: I was working.   Although I caught some of the action on Sunday.

The tenth frame … ?

Was seriously old fashioned snooker: with a lot of riveting tippy-tapping around, quite a few nerve shredding almost pots … 

And some great potting from both Williams, and his opponent, John Higgins, putting in some great play.

I’m sorry I missed it.

~≈§≈~

Of course, the reason I missed it … ?

Was simply the fact I was working.

Which was relatively relaxed, actually.

Apart from one thing.

The water’s was switched off … somehow … 

Which made several things awkward.

Flushing the toilet, for starters.

AND washing your hands, afterwards.

Granted, the boss managed to get a lot — a serious lot — of bottled water.

Which helped: especially when you realise that — once you’ve pooed — you need water to not only flush, but to eliminate the smell.   From what I understand?   The … uh … gas … from any solid waste doesn’t fill the room, as it can’t get past the water that’s above it in the u-bend.

Quite!

All I can do, right now … ?

Is hope it’s back on, when I go in, tonight.
