Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-9-2026 — The Muppet Show (Ten Questions)

5th September, 2026: The Muppet Show.


Hmmm … I think I have issues … !

A couple of comments haven’t gone through on yesterday’s post.

Frankly?

My Mum had to send over her answers via WhatsApp!

Hopefully?

A change in back-end settings will help.

If you can keep an eye peeled, please do … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 4-9-2026 — You Have Been Googled

4th September, 2026: You Have Been Googled.


You wouldn’t believe it, would you?

But it’s been some thirteen years since I last did a question set about Google.

You can read it, here.

Or watch the video version.


Assuming you’re of a mind to!

At any rate … ?

It’s pay day, today.

So … ?

I’ll be off shopping, at some point, and adding money to my electricity meter.

And wondering exactly how to make the left over cash, last!

Donations happily excepted, folks: sterling for preference!

~≈💷≈~

On other fronts … ?

Yes: I’ve managed to finish another review!

Of “Sons and Daughters”, the penultimate episode of For All Mankind’s fifth season.


If you could hit the ‘Like’ button, I’d appreciate it … !

For All Mankind — Series 5 Episode 9 — “Sons and Daughters” — A Review

1st September, 2026.
“Sons and Daughters”.
The Introduction.
Right at the moment, I am desperately staving off earworms.

I’ve had the theme to vintage Australian soap, Sons and Daughters, earworming its way through my head for approximately a week, now.


Because … ?

Because, right now, I’m cremating a burger for dinner: and will be making home made chips to go with it, any minute now.

There might even be vegetables, as well.

The reason I say that … ?

Is that it’s Tuesday.

So I’m going watching the next episode of For All Mankind’s fifth series, after dinner.

And, given I’ve been aware the episode’s called “Sons and Daughters”, since last week?

I’ve had an earworm.

At any rate … ?

I’ll be watching “Sons and Daughters”, tonight.

And, hopefully?

Will have my review up by this coming Friday.

Assuming the burger isn’t too crispy!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 3-9-2026 — San Marino

3rd September, 2026: San Marino.

Right, then … it’s officially Thursday … !

And Radio Four’s Today programme has been telling us they’re marking Norman Day.

In other words, they’re marking the Norman Invasion of Britain in 1066: some 960 years ago.

And covering one specific thing: the fact the millennia-old Bayeux Tapestry, the Tapestry made by the Normans to mark their success, is currently on display at the British Museum.

I doubt I’ll have the chance.

But I’d love to see that: it’s an authentic piece of history!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd September 2026.

2nd September, 2026.

That’s me being silly in a video, agin … 

But all silliness aside … ?

I had the Today programme on, earlier: and caught a headline.

There’s a bill going through Parliament called the Representation of the People Bill 2026.

The headline?

Told us that the bill has its third reading, today.

It caught my eye, as one of the clauses being voted on, is a proposal to lower the voting age: from eighteen, to sixteen.

Something that would allow my fifteen year-old nephew to vote: once he hits his sixteen birthday, in December.

I hope this goes through.

I think that sooner we get the idea of youngster voter, the better.
