Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 10-6-2017

That’s … 

Worrying … 

Right now?

Right now, Prime Minister, Theresa May, is organising her minority government.

And, behind the scenes?   Arranging the details of how her party will work with the Democratic Unionists, in Northern Ireland.

I get the impression that’s going to cause issues.

Apparently?   Ruth Davidson, the leader of the Scottish Conservatives, has admitted to reservations.

As Ian Paisley’s old party?   Are known to be socially conservative: and opposed to gay marriage, and abortion.

Ms Davidson?   Is known to be planning to marry her female partner in the not too distant future.

Personally?

I’m deeply concerned.   From the little I know, the DUP are extremely socially conservative: and have had at least one MP endorsed by loyalist paramilitaries.

I was a child in the 1970s: and remember hearing the phrase “a ceasefire has failed,” too many times.

I’m worried this will set up a nasty situation reminiscent of the Troubles.

Here’s hoping … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 10-6-2016

Right … 

It’s Friday: and also payday.

Which means, as I’m back at work, today, that getting into town, paying my bills, and then doing some shopping?

Is going to involve a lot of walking around!

No problem, there, I think: I could do with losing a bit of weight.

Even so?

I’ll probably appreciate the sleep, tonight.

The Daily Teaser — 10-5-2015

Ye gods, but that’s SOMETHING … 

I told you — yesterday — I’d dropped a terabyte capacity external drive: complete with some 800 gigabytes of media and family photos.

I’m … 

Well, the word ‘unhappy’ is the one that sums it up best.

Or, at least, most politely.

At any rate, I’ve managed to find a local local computer repair place: one that’s happy to try getting what it can off the drive.

I’m thankful I’ve a little cash to at least put down a deposit, there.

Otherwise?   I’d DEFINITELY be onto a losing streak.
