Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-1-2022: Umberto Eco

5th January, 2022.


Do you ever get that, first thing in the morning?

That time when staring at walls seems to make sense?

Possibly just me, then: unless everyone’s brain takes a while to get into gear, as they get older!

At any rate … ?

It’s now the day after yesterday: and?   I’ve now got a working bathroom light.

And managed to drop off samples, have a job centre meeting, and get a little shopping.

Which doesn’t sound like much, I know: but did make for a busy day.

Today’s going to be quieter.

Although, saying that … ?

I’ve got an official CV re-writing course, this afternoon: through a Microsoft Teams video call.

We’ll have to see how that goes …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-1-2017

Hmmm … 

Wouldn’t you just know it … 

If you read yesterday’s post, you’ll have realised that I was having problems: connecting to the internet.

Getting frequent ‘You Are Not Connected To The Internet’ messages.

I first noticed it on Tuesday night, when I got home from work.

I got it, again, yesterday.   Which was annoying: I fancied a film, but couldn’t guarantee being able to watch one.

One thing I did do, yesterday?

Was phone BT to chase up what was happening with the situation.

According to them?   The problem was not the connection, as originally thought.

No.

It was the router.

The dratted HomeHub3: the one they’d originally replaced for me, a couple of months ago.

After I’d complained about the thing!

Thankfully?   BT’s Sending a replacement.

But, LORD, I’m not happy!
