20th July, 2019.
Did you know I do a lot of stuff on Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar?
I do a lot of stuff on here: including the (possibly) notorious Daily Teasers.
Something that I mentioned this morning?
Was that I’d had an internal hard drive for sale.
Except my local CeX wouldn’t accept it: as there was an unanticipated extra partition there, that prevented access to the rest of the drive.
So … ?
Well, the only thing I could do, was post a question to the relevant Apple forums, to see what could be dragged up.
This thread? Gave me a potential answer.
Thankfully?
It worked!
I was able to sell the drive to the Brentwood branch of CeX, this morning.
Result!
At any rate … ?
It’s Saturday: which means … more TV, frankly!

Episode 2 — Chapter Two: The Mall Rats — shows Nancy and Jonathan (Natalia Dyer and Charlie Heaton) follow a lead: it seems the old lady who’d reported the rabid rat is onto something.
Steve and Robin (Joe Keery and Maya Hawke) get talked into joining Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo) in his quest to find out exactly what those transmissions are.
Whilst Max and Eleven (Finn Wolfhard and Millie Bobby Brown) go shopping: very separately!
And finally, Billy?
Billy (Dacre Montgomery) is in trouble: he manages to put in a days work as a lifeguard … only to met a victim, there …

I have to say, there’s a lot going on in this episode: possibly more than I have time to summarise.
But … ?
Once again, we have an almost perfect episode: paced, well acted and written, with an ensemble cast that — by the look of their performance — works very well together.
And, in getting on well, in working well?
Are giving a well written script a good turn.
Frankly?
I’m going to be watching more of this!

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
