Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 24th November, 2018.

24th November, 2018.


It’s a Saturday morning, and here I am … 

Not exactly financially able to get out and splurge.

But there you go … 

If nothing else, though?

I know I’ve had a brief chat with one of the staff at the local job centre: and found there’s help some financial help available.

And implied there’s help available should I want to put in for a provisional drivers license.

Which would come in handy in situations where I need ID.

Here’s hoping I can do something about that: no ID has cost me one job interview, already …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 24th November, 2017.

Ah HA!

It looks like it’s holding!

I don’t know about you, but I ten to rely on Wikipedia for writing both the Teaser, and the  quizzes I wrote for the pub quizzes I ran.

But could never afford — for much of the time — to make a donation.

I have, however, made a positive contribution.

You see the screen shot of the Wikipedia page for the 21st November?

The entry about Robert Mugabe’s resignation?

That woz me, wot dun it!

Ahem!


In other words, it was me that created the entry, flagged up the fact on the relevant talk page … and is desperately hoping it’s still there in a years time.

Frankly?

I’m enough of an tart for the attention, to go Wheeeeeeeeeeee … ! whenever I see the page: and that my bit’s still there.

But on a more serious note?

It’s nice to know that a contribution I’ve made, is still in place,

I just hope it’s still there, next year.

It’s be nice to use it as the basis for a 2018 question.

And it’s nice to make a positive contribution, however small.

The Daily Teaser — 24-11-2015

You know, I get the — occasionally serious — case of earworms.

You know, a song — or bits of it — that play their way through your head: sometimes for no apparent reason.

Although I’m VERY aware of two things.   Yesterday, when Barry Andrews’ Win The Night Out With A Well Known Paranoiac started unreeling itself through my head, was a Sunday.


Which is when I first heard the thing, many years ago, on Annie Nightingale’s request show.

And I’d ALSO mentioned it — via Facebook — to a co-worker.

Still, it could’ve been worse.   It could’ve been Let’s Evolve, by Sudden Sway.
