Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd April 2025.

2nd April, 2025.

It’s officially Wednesday.

So … ?

I can officially say that I’m between reviews!

Tonight?

I’m going to watch episode two of classic Dr Who story, The Savages.

I should have that up by tomorrow.

Last night … ?

I managed to get a review finished … of — of all things — Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs.

Heigh ho.

Or should I say hi-ho … ?

Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs — Snow White (1937) — A Review

31st March, 2025: Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs/Snow White.

The Introduction.

It has got to be said: I watch movies, occasionally.

You’ve possibly noticed, haven’t you … ?

At any rate, I watch movies, and feel that I should review them: both here on Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar, and on my YouTube channel, @MrCuddy2977.

Feel free to subscribe, both here, and on YouTube.

It’s very appreciated.

At any rate … ?

It’s a quiet Monday night.

And I felt I should watch a movie.

Something I’ve felt I should do, over the years?

Is simply watch films that have some sort of worth to them.

Which is why I’ve all sorts of things, over the years: Nosferatu, for example, Der Golem, or The Cabinet of Dr Caligari, as others.

More recent ones, too: Close Encounters, or Blade Runner.

I’m using the term ‘recent’, loosely, there: but you get my point.

I’ve tried to see things that are viewed as historically significant.

Which is why — as I’m burning sausages to death — I’m writing this.

It’s to let you know that — given the fuss about the live action remake, and given I first saw it as a child — I going to watch the original Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs.

Even if it’s not my usual thing.

~≈👸🏻≈~

Given all that … ?

Given that, I’m going to give this a watch, tonight: then let you know what I thought about it by tomorrow, Tuesday, 1st April.

Hopefully?

I’ll see you then …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 1-4-2025 — A Fool and His Money

1st April, 2025: A Fool and His Money …

It’s got to be said: I feel slightly silly!

As I was up at 3:15, this morning.

Literally, I was up — and awake-ish! — at 3:15.

Utterly convinced my alarm had gone off.

It was wasn’t until my computer — on over night, to do some transcoding — announced the time that I realised two things.

• I was up, way too early.
• I’d wasted a tea bag.

Ho-hum!

~≈🕒≈~

As an extra thought … ?

I was at my weight management meeting, yesterday.

You know that: you know I’ve been going to them, first thing on a Monday morning, for some time.

This week … ?

I’ve officially lost one and a half kilos: about three pounds.

That — considering I was up seven hundred grams, last week? — was good going.

~≈⚖️≈~

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31st March 2025.

31st March, 2025.

Right … it’s officially early, on what’s officially Monday morning.

And … ?

I’m up early: again.

Yes: I’m off to my weight management meeting, today.

Desperately hoping I’ve lost weight: last week’s weigh gain was a little too big for my comfort … !

~≈⚖️≈~

At any rate, getting up this early, after the clocks went forward?

Is nice.

As it means waking up in the dark.

There’s something a little romantic about that … 

~≈❤️≈~

That’s a good thing … 

English pharmacies will have a new service: free morning after pills for those who need them.

I think that’s going to be a much needed service: there’s always going to be a need for it, I think.

But … ?

I’m also aware Britain’s had a history of pro-life protestors, blocking abortion clinics.

And wondering if we’ll see them outside the local chemist.

I doubt it.

I doubt we’ll see it.

I seriously doubt it’ll happen.

I hope I’m right … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 30th March, 2025.

30th March, 2025.

It’s officially official: the clocks have gone forward … !

And I’ve had an extra hour in bed.

At least, I think I have.

I could never work that out!

~≈⌚️≈~

You’ll remember that Friday saw me spending time with my nephew: and having a good time.

Until Deliveroo got involved.

The meal we’d ordered was half an hour late, getting to us an hour after we’d ordered it: rather than the promised twenty to thirty minutes.

Thankfully?

And after figuring out the complaints system … ?

Deliveroo have agreed to refund the money.

It will go through, I’m told, ‘in 5-7 working days, depending on your bank’.

Here’s hoping … 

~≈🪙≈~

Just as a last thought, if you’re following the t-shirt story: about the t-shirt I’ve ordered … ?

They’ve updated me, again.

It’s now in Woodbridge.

In New Jersey* …
