Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 27th July 2026.

27th July, 2026.

It’s Monday, again … !

So, of course, I’m off to my weekly weigh-in.

Hopefully?

I’ll’ve lost a little more weight: after losing half a kilo, last weeks.

We’ll have to see, won’t we?

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 26-7-2026 — Tom Lehrer

26th July, 2026: Tom Lehrer.

OK, it’s Sunday.

Which means that yesterday was Saturday, and the day I had a second haircut in the space of a fortnight.

Why … ?

The last time I had one, I used a different barbers: as the regular place I go was shut: a much deserved holiday.

I wasn’t especially pleased with it.

So?

As I had some cash, and my usual place was re-opened?

I had another.

I think Daniels have done their usual sterling job!

~≈💈≈~

Oh, did I mention I’m thingummy do-dah wossname … ?

Rather fond of the work of writer, William Gibson, in other words!

So … ?

I’m looking forward to AppleTV’s upcoming TV version of Gibson’s Neuromancer.

I caught the trailer, this morning: and, going by that … ?

The show is due for release on 22nd January, next year.

I’m looking forward to it.

I don’t think it’s accurate to the text: but … ?

It does look entertaining.

And they look like they’ve got Molly right … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 25th July, 2026.

25th July, 2026.

OK … it’s now Saturday … and I could tell you about Amazon’s latest delivery disaster.

I won’t: beyond telling that, when I order three boxes of something, I expect them to turn up at the same time.

When I’ve paid a little extra to get everything in the morning, I expect to get everything in the morning: not get two in the morning, and one in the evening … after I’d sent a complaint email to the jeff@amazon.com address.

Ho … … hum … !

~≈🛒≈~

Just so you know … ?

I’ve finally finished my review of For All Mankind’s third episode.

I hope it makes sense!

~≈📽️≈~

I can’t help but notice that there’s wildfires in Spain and France: Madrid’s under serious threat, and parts of the Gironde are doing badly.

There’s wildfires in Scotland and Wales, too.

I live near a small patch of parkland that’s mostly used by dog walkers who — for the most part — don’t seem to smoke.

Something I’m thankful for: I’d hate to see a fag-butt triggered wildfire near me.

But, given the world seems more prone to wildfires than it did … ?

I’m very aware a fire could be started by anything.

And seriously hope it won’t.

For All Mankind — Series 5 Episode 3 — “Home” — A Review

20th July, 2026.

“Home”.

The Introduction.

Right, then: it’s officially Monday, and dinner’s doing.

In point of fact, I’ve just heard my vegetables go ‘Bing’.

Or, at least, heard the microwave go ‘Bing’

So dinner is almost ready to be eaten … 

~≈🪐≈~

Right … that’s dinner out of the way … !

I’m writing this on Monday night: the day before I’m intent on watching “Home”, the next episode For All Mankind series five.

And will be finish the subsequent written and video reviews by this coming Friday.

Right now … ?

I’m looking for to it.

Episode 2 ended on a cliffhanger …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 24-7-2026 — Samaritan Awareness Day. (Six questions)

24th July, 2026: Samaritan Awareness Day.

Right … it’s officially Friday.

But feels like a Saturday.

I know why, though.

I get one set of benefits on the 23rd of each months: yesterday, in other words.

I get another, every fourth Friday.

A couple of weeks away, in other words.

So … ?

I’ve been paid one benefit, but feel as if I’ve been paid the other: and the day I know is a Friday, feels like a Saturday as a result.

Heigh … … … ho … !
