Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd October 2026

2nd October, 2026.

Right … I’ve had my annual gas safety check!

And … ?

It has to be said, the chap that did it was both polite, quick and … 

Umm … 

Something else flattering: that I’ll add when my brain decides what to add!

About the only thing he forgot?

Was to re-pressurise the boiler, when he went.

It’s a good thing thing I knew how to do that: I’d’ve had no heating, this morning!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 1-10-2026 — October.

1st October, 2026: October.

Right … excitable heaps … 

Are you in one?

No … ?

That’s OK: night am I.

I just know I have to stay in, this afternoon, as I’m due my annual gas safety check, this afternoon!

There’s been a bit of talk, recently: after Andy Burnham, the UK’s current PM, announced that Labour were thinking about a second Brexit referendum into their next election manifesto.

Having voted Remain, back in 2016?

I’d welcome the chance to correct something I view as a massive cock-up.

But any options on the ballot would need to be carefully thought out, and not the Leave/Remain options in 2016.

They’d need to be:

• Stay out of the EU.
• Re-join the EU and the Euro.
• Re-join the EU and keep Sterling as our currency.

I’m no economist, no expert: but I’m aware that the pound — along with the US dollar, the Euro, and the Japanese Yen, amongst others — is a reserve currency, acceptable in international trade.

Whilst it may not give us much clout?

It gives us some.

So, given those three options?

I’d want to go for the third: re-joining the EU and keeping Sterling.

We’ll have to see, won’t we … ?

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 30-9-2026 — Max Verstappen

30th September, 2026: Max Verstappen.

Right at the moment?

This song is playing: 

Although, frankly … ?

There’s only so much of Funky Billy Chin I can put up with.

I might just change the record … !

A few days ago, intruders were spotted outside RAF Fairford, in Gloucestershire: in vans containing lots of petrol, rather than the originally reported explosives.

The RAF base is leased out to the US Air Force: and used by the USAF in their current action against Iran.

Understandably, security is heavy in and around the base.

I have questions.

One?

Why were the suspects bailed?

Apparently, this was in what police called an “investigative decision”, one that was “grounded in experience and strategy”.

Hmmm … 

OK … but I suspect keeping a group of terrorists off the street would be a good idea, but I’m not wearing the uniform.

Two … ?

Apparently, and according to The Times, one of the five suspects phoned an alert to the police, himself.

Why … ?

I have no idea!

But I’m wondering if the event — stunt? — was either some sort of training exercise: by, I don’t know, MI5, or the SAS.

Or, I don’t know, right wing idiots like Combat 18, paint throwing lefties like Palestine Action … 

Or — as suggested, earlier, on the Today programme — by a bunch of TikTok influencers trying to go really viral!

Which really wouldn’t surprise me!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 29th September 2029

29th September, 2026.

Why does that happen … ?

Why is it, when you wake up on a day you know to be Tuesday, you wake up convinced it’s Sunday … ?

Despite — despite — being aware it’s Tuesday, have double-checked it’s Tuesday, have done everything you can to confirm it’s Tuesday … and yet, it feels like Sunday … 

What on Earth is going on?

I wish I knew.

There’s possibly money in finding out … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 28-9-2026 — The Czech Republic

28th September, 2026: Czechia.

Once more unto the weigh-in, once more!

Yes: it’s Monday.

So … ?

I’m off to my weight management weigh in.

Hopefully, I’d’ve los something.

Which would be nice: I’ve gained a few pounds, over the past few weeks.
