Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 30-6-2017

Hmmm … 

I’m actually up … after slightly less sleep than usual.

Mostly?

Where I’ve has time off, and managed to catch some TV.

Series one of American Horror Story, so you know.

Fascinatingly grim stuff, I should add.

Hormonal teens, hormonal parents, hormonal 20-somethings, hormonal pensioners.

And that’s before you get to Jessica Lange’s accent!

Come to think of it?

That’s before you get to the living characters!

Oh, on a kind of a technology theme?

Did you ever hear about Britain’s best-selling computer?

You — like me — probably remember things like the ZX Spectrum: Britain’s best seller, at the time.

These day’s?

Britain’s best selling computer is the Raspberry Pi: originally designed as an educational tool, but also doing very well in embedded systems and control units in industry.

Well … ?

It’s won the MacRoberts Prize: Britain’s top engineering prize.

Well down, then!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 30-6-2016

That’s it: I’m officially knackered … !

Mind you … ?

I did manage to stay up, late, last night.

Chatting to an old friend, via Facebook Messenger.

That’ll bloody well teach me!

Still … 

I’ve one last day off before I go back to work.

Frankly, I can have a nap, later …
