Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd December 2024.

2nd December, 2024.

It’s official.

I caught a movie, last night: the 1980, Hazel O’Connor vehicle that is Breaking Glass.

I’ll have my review up, later: but?

But … ?

I’ve now got “Give Me An Inch” ear-worming its way through my head.

~≈👩🏻‍🎤≈~

Did I mention I made a quick video, yesterday?

I made a quick video, yesterday!

Can you do me a favour, please?

I made a quick video, yesterday.

Let me know if the thing makes sense, please!

~≈📼≈~

Just as a last thought … ?

It’s early on a Monday morning: so, of course, I’m off to my weekly weight management course.

Hopefully?

I’ll have lost something: something I’ve not managed over the past couple of weeks.

Even though my trousers feel looser, I’ve gone up, slightly!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd December 2022.

2nd December, 2022.

Right … it’s Friday: and … ?

I’m feeling slightly rushed.

I’m too easily distracted by silly games … and by the fact I’m boiling a lot of water: with bleach in it.

Yes: I’m bleaching my teatowels.

It might take a while.

But I’ve got plenty of time before my hygienist’s appointment.

I don’t know what I’ll be going on Sunday, 25th June, 2023.

I know what Elton John’s going to up to.

He’ll be playing his last gig: at Glastonbury.

That … ?   Might be worth watching.

Elton’s got one HELL of a reputation … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd December, 2018

2nd December, 2018.

Yep, it’s a wet Sunday morning: and frankly?

I’m at a loss for something to do … 

Well … 

I’ll possibly need to empty my bins at some point.

As well as do half a ton of stuff around the flat.

And … well … hang around … !

~≈§≈~

Saying that … ?

I have this bad habit of floating around the BBC’s news pages.

And couldn’t help but notice a couple of items.

First up … ?

It seems NHK, the national broadcaster of Japan, has announced its new 8K TV channel.

In other words, its new EXTREMELY high definition TV channel.

Not that everyone in Japan has the kit to watch it: for one thing, the sets need four HDMI cables to carry the signal.

But those who do will be able to watch a broadcast of 2001: A Space Odyssey in seriously stunning definition.

The other thing I noticed?

Apparently, a schoolboy in Burnham-on-Crouch managed to log onto a teacher’s laptop, copy a lot of confidential pupil data and share it with his friends.

Apparently, the school concerned has taken action to recover the data, and warn affected pupils and parents.

Now, I know I’m as guilty as anyone: of not locking my screen when I’m at home, or when I was at work.

Not that I get that many visitors … but most wouldn’t go anywhere near my desktop if I wasn’t in the room.   

Not that anyone I worked with, in my last job, would look at whatever computer I was working with.

But I’m very aware that screen locking — switching on a screen saver, and making sure  it can’t be turned off without a password — is good, basic practise.

So I’m not wondering how this has happened.

I’m convinced the teacher has been away from his desk, left his screen unlocked … 

And, somewhere in the class room?

Kids have been kids …
