Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 19-11-2018: International Men’s Day

19th November, 2018.

Yep: it’s a Monday: which means it’s another day, gloriously job hunting.

Where I’m not, you know … thinking about job hunting.

Or trying to access the internet — here or at Brentwood Library — so that I can, you know 

Job hunt!

You can see a theme, here, can’t you … ?

~≈§≈~

At any rate … ?

You can possibly tell I’ve had some time on my hands.

Obviously.

Right at the moment, I do know I’m worrying about the basics: food, gas, electricity, what have you.

I’m OK for a few days … but thinking I may have to put in for a hardship loan of some description.

Here’s hoping I can find out who I get that from … !

If the interview I’m due to go to on Wednesday doesn’t pay out?

Well … 

~≈§≈~

One nice upside … ?

Is simply the fact I managed to catch last night’s episode of Dr Who*.

Which, granted, wasn’t necessarily the strongest episode: but still one that was rather good.

About my only complaint, thus far: one I know won’t be actioned until next year, at the earliest …?

I miss these guys … !
