The (purely optional) Liebster Award, 2017


20th December, 2017.

OK … there’s possibly things I could be doing … 

Possibly relaxing, possibly not.

And possibly better — or worse — than things I’ve done.

No, I’m not talking about some of them.

The good stuff involved one or two other people.

The bad stuff … ?

Just involved me making a twit of myself.

At ANY rate … ?

The possible things … ?

Include watching a movie.

Maybe a TV box set: I still have a handful to start.

Teaser videos are something I’ve enough of, to be going on with.

Until, of course, the thought occurred.

Old friend, and Daily Teaser regular, Debbi Mack, decided I was worth a gong.


OK, the Liebsters are VERY unofficial gongs: for bloggers, by bloggers.

But, hey … 

How could I NOT thank the Old Peculiar’s longest running commenter, by accepting?   And taking part … ?

Hmm … ?

Mobile Blogging

Hmm ...

You know, I'll happily admit to being Mr Unhealthy.

But do like to get out of the flat.

Even if it's just to get as far as the library: something the - hopefully - attached photos show.

OK: granted it's only so much.

But at least I've managed to get some fresh air.

AND used me new iPod to it the post up about it

Rommel: Gunner Who … ?

You know …

It’s not THAT often I tell you I’m going to be adding a new blog.

Not a blog post, a new blog … !
It’s official: myself an an old friend — who prefers to be only known as Grub — have started a new blog.

Mostly devoted to something we’ve long both had an interest in.

Dr Who.

Nik Nak & Grub’s Who Peculiar is still in it’s early days, as yet, so I’m hoping you’ll bear with us.

But … ?

But here’s hoping it goes well.

First Time

30th September, 2008.

Here we go, folks: this is the very first post on Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar.

Hopefully, I’ll be able to put stuff up from the quizzes I’ve performed, some assorted thoughts and literally anything else that occurs to me.

Feel free to leave replies, comments, photos, links, and anything you want me to look at.

Have fun!
