Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18th March, 2019

18th March, 2019.

You know, it’s got to be said, I think — think — we can safely my nephew, Jude … ?

Has inherited the family sense of humour.

Which is all good, I think.

There’s possibly a lot more I could say, there.

But … ?

Well … 

He does come up with the occasional good point … 

But occasionally doesn’t.

Thank heavens for that.

~≈§≈~

Oh, just as a sad bit of news?

It seems guitarist, Dick Dale, has died.

I have to admit, I didn’t know much about him: beyond the fact he did the original version of Misirlou, that was later used in Pulp Fiction.

Oh, and practically invented a genre of guitar music.

But … 

Well … 

You have to do something, if a fellow lefty goes …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18th March, 2018

18th March, 2018.

I think we can definitely say I’ve got the day off, today: and tomorrow.

And, while I’d get serious extra pay for doing extra hours — double time, plus work’s recently invented Snow Bonus* — I really don’t like the look of that trip.

Plus?

I’ve got stuff I need to do, here at home.

As I told my boss, yesterday?

“No-one else is going to wash my pants …”

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18-3-2017

Good morning, everyone … 

Lordy, but that looks cheerful!

Especially when you consider I’m doing a ten hour shift, today.

That’s actually not — at the moment —too bad a prospect.

What gets me — as always — is the transport.

As a result of the various boys of Crossrail work?

On Saturday, my commute to work starts with a rail replacement bus from Brentwood to Shenfield, moves to another bus Shenfield to Ingatestone, then and only then, to a train from Ingatestone to Chelmsford.

Which then plays out in reverse, on the way back.

It’s a bit of a pain in the bum, to be frank.

The only entertaining thing about the trip, today?

Is the fact the earworm of the day is the incredible entertaining Last Train to Transcentral*.

What were the KLF on?
