Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22-3-2024 — World Water Day.

22nd March, 2024: World Water Day.

Right then … it’s officially Friday.

Pay day, in other words.

And … ?

Brentwood Council are useless!

I’m due to start paying my council tax, today.

On previous years bills?

There’s been a bar code: that the shop you pay the bill at, scans to send the money to the right place.

This year’s bills?   Sent to me on line?

Has a section — at the bottom of the bill — that says “Scan for Payment”.

And no bar-code.

How I’m supposed to pay that … ?

I don’t know.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22-3-2019: World Water Day

22nd March, 2019.

Right … 

Today is going to be something of a long day: shopping, the Citizen’s Advise Bureau, a hospital appointment … 

Not a serious one, I should add: just a blood test to track my underachieve thyroid.

It’s not a day I want to fanny around: excuse the language.

But therefore … 

It’s exactly the day Google’s photo uploader decides to act up.

Technology is a wonderful thing.

Until it goes ka-bluey … … !

Oh, by the way … 

If you’re in the UK, you’re possibly aware of the petition: the one that calls on Parliament.

You can find it, here.

It’s hopeless: the thing closes in August, well after any of the leaving days.

But, frankly?

I’ve signed: as have many others.

In part, to raise the issue.

Hey ho …
