Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 11-6-2018: The Day We Went To Bangor …

11th June, 2018.

Yes … 

I got sleep, last night … 

But not as much as the night before!

Saying that … ?

I think I can say I had good reason.

Basically … ?

I’d no movies to watch: nothing was grabbing me on iTunes, and frankly?

Frankly, Black Panther has spent a long time as a ‘Pre-order’ only movie.

Which I can’t help but feel has given Pirate Bay users a field day!

At any rate … ?

At any rate, I’ve actually managed to catch the opening three episodes of American Horror Story, sixth series, Roanoke, last night.

It’s possibly the best series, yet.

I certainly know this.

It also looks like it’s going to be giving Angela Bassett a run for the money.

American Horror Story — Series 6: Roanoke — Chapter 1, Chapter 2 and Chapter 3.

10th June, 2018

Yes: I’m not lying.

I had planned to watch a movie, tonight.

No, really.

I honestly had planned to watch a film.

But … ?



With Black Panther still only available to pre-order on iTunes and Amazon, possibly giving good old fashioned video pirates a chance to earn money?



And with nothing in the collection grabbing my attention … ?

I fancied watching something … available … and watchable.

So … I looked in my collection of TV box sets.

Yes.

I’ve got all of the currently available copies of American Horror Story.

With nothing else grabbing my attention … ?

I thought getting started on series 6, Roanoke, might just repay me.

So far … ?

10th June 2018.

Yep: it’s true … I’ve a day off.

Today and tomorrow.

I’ve got work to do, though.

Frankly?

Being single is lovely: but does men no-one’s around to volunteer to do the laundry … 

Which reminds me … 

I possibly need to put my teatowels through the wash …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 9th June 2018.

9th June, 2018.

Yes: I’m officially as tired as a tired bloke, tiredly yawning on Twitter: and here’s hoping THAT gets retweeted about a bit … !

Ahem … pic.twitter.com/hKHQqDPJwh

I wouldn’t mind knowing how many people yawn as a result … !

Which reminds me … apparently, we don’t do contagious yawning if we have a form of schizophrenia.   Or autism.

But DO, if we are a human who doesn’t have those conditions … 

Or we’re a chimp … 

Amazing what getting distracted at this time of the morning can do for you …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8th June, 2018.

8th June, 2018

Oh … yeah … it’s Friday … !

And, yes: I’m looking forward to my next day off, Sunday.

Frankly?   Catching up with sleep will be good, as would … well … all sorts of things.

~≈§≈~

Actually … ?

Not being a mussel would be .

I’ve got Radio 4’s Today program on in the background: as ever.

In amongst the daily updates on Brexit, other stuff about Brexit, and the Cabinet’s feuds — triggered by Brexit — there’s been a report …

That all mussels bought in shops are contaminated by seaborne micro-plastic waste.

That’s … 

Well, frankly?   I’ve never really been one for shellfish.

The effect we’re having — on our own diets — is one more reason for me to not try it.

~≈§≈~

Oh … 

One more thing … 

You’ve realised that I’m not a football fan.   But am a technology watching ex-barman.

One who’s noticed that Amazon have bought the rights to screen various English Premier League football matches from 2019.

I’m THINKING that could have a big impact on the pub trade.

As — if I’ve understood things correctly, and depending on the price structure — all a pub; would need would be a Fire stick, and an Amazon Prime subscription.

Which, from what I could see?   Are a LOT cheaper than the prices Sky and BT charge pubs.

Frankly?

If the hospitality industry can move fast on this — in negotiating those prices — it could save itself a fortune on costs.

And stop pubs getting done from buying fully loaded kodi boxes.
