Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th December, 2019

5th December, 2019.

Right then … 

I’m back at my course, today.

I’m … looking forward to it.

Although I have an issue.

My left shoulder’s been aching, recently: and I think I know why.

I’m left handed: and this course has seen me doing more physical hand writing than I’ve down for a decade!

Net result?

An ache!

Oy veh … !

Walt Disney, December 5, 1901 – December 15, 1966.

And a song‡ …

Today’s questions will be answered in tomorrow’s Teaser.

Have a good day.

*        Wow!   That moustache of Rudolfo’s is interesting, Olga!   I’m looking forward this.   I’m also wondering how on Earth they’ll carry Lola’s story forward: especially if they’re bringing Aura Garrida back into the show.   I’m not convinced they tied up Julián and Amelia’s romance as well as they could.   (If it’s any help … ?   We’re chilly … but it’s been VERY sunny … !)

†        Cheers, Debbi!   I’m just hoping my arm stops aching!   Oh … and the course stops using Microsoft Word.   (Ye gods, it’s bad … I mean, really bad.   You might think going that far to the chemist is bad, but … )

‡        I now have an old Stan Freberg tune going through my head.   Why?   No idea …
