Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 24th September 2026

24th September, 2026.

OK … 

I’ve officially got to go back to the High Street, today: unless I can get something at the shops near Brentwood Station.

Yes: I forgot something, yesterday.

Toilet blocks!

Wouldn’t you know it?

~≈🚽≈~

In other news … ?

I was in Brentwood’s Post Office, yesterday: paying my rent, and paying off my BT bill.

And … ?

Managing to ask if they heard what was to happen, once their branch had closed … 

They had no idea … but were able to confirm that no-one — to the best of their knowledge — had put in to open a new Brentwood branch.

That’s a screaming shame.

Even in a time dominated by online payments, people are still going to need those branches.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 24th September, 2020.

24th September, 2020.


Right … I got paid, yesterday: and will be scrimping and saving for the rest of the month.

As you do!

However?   I’ve managed to order the basic Christmas presents for my family.

Including … a hat!

You can possibly guess who that’s for.

One thing I did notice, when I went shopping, yesterday?

Was Sainsbury’s.

The place is hard to miss.

The one thing I seriously noticed?

Was the amount of empty shelves.

It’s not as bad as it was at the heart of Lockdown.

But enough to pay attention to the low amounts of stock: of bread, of milk, of toilet paper.

I’ve been hearing rumours — rumours, mind — that there’s panic buying going on.

Giving what I saw, yesterday?

That wouldn’t surprise me.
