Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th October 2023.

5th October, 2023.


Did I mention I’ve got a Christmas playlist in my Music app?

I’ve got a Christmas playlist in my Music app.

So you know.

I’ve got it on as I write.


Quite why “Vienna” is in that list, I don’t know.

Oh, just as a quick thought … ?

You’ve heard of Ian Dury’s classic LP, New Boots and Panties?

It turns out there’s a tribute version called Brand New Boots and Panties: I’m just playing it, now … Sinead O’Connor’s version of “Wake Up and Make Love To Me” is something else!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th October, 2017

I have to admit, this week’s been … 

Frustrating.

Hours cut at work?

That’s not good.

Interview last Thursday: I’ve still not heard.   I should know by today or tomorrow.

Catching up with Teasers and the minimal bit of house work I need to do?

Well, that’s done, bar the videos.

Leaving me with the real frustration, tonight: on a night when I have to be early for work.

More House of Cards?

An early night?

Or Wonder Woman, regardless of the fact I find the price on iTunes a little high?


On top of that … ?

I can’t wait for Sunday.

It’s the next episode of Star Trek: Discovery!

Argh!

The Prince Of Darkness: Mmmm …

31st August, 2017

Ummm … 

Possibly Hmmm … 

Or even Ahhh … 

Yes, you’re right … 

It’s been one of those afternoons.   Or possibly days.

No, nothing drastically bad’s been happening.   Nor anything especially wonderful.

Just — basically — quiet.

Well … bar doing the inevitable laundry … and watching a movie.

John Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness, so you know.

And, having seen it?   The frequent words of one of my co-workers comes to mind here.

“I’m confused …”

Escape From New York: Oooh … So THAT’S where William Gibson Got That Dissolving Implant Gag from … !


17-11-2011

Hmmm …

Well …

There’s a … well … Umm …

Interesting … movie of the evening … !

I’ve GOT to admit, I’ve just spent the night in.

A night in by meself, to be frank, and one that feature’s — frankly — not much on telly that was catching my attention.

Frankly … ?

Frankly, it’s times like this I’m really glad I’ve a pile of unwatched movies sitting around, I really do.

One of those unwatched movies … ?

Believe it of not, was the 1981 John Carpenter directed, Kurt Russell film, Escape From New York.

And when I say unwatched … ?

That’s exactly what I mean, to be frank. Would you believe that’s actually the first time I’ve seen it … ?
