Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 11th April, 2022.

11th April, 2022.


Right … I mentioned it, yesterday: I am having possibly rent issues.

As my landlords are putting the rent up.

But told the Department of Work and Pensions, who pay my benefits, they’re not.

When money’s this tight … ?

That’s not what you want to hear.

What it DOES mean … ?

Is phoning them — and the Job Centre — to try and get this corrected.

Here’s hoping!

*        Hello, Mum!

†        You’re missing David Ajala, then: he’s putting in a very good performance!   Oh, did I mention Katy Manning’s on Twitter?   And Instagram?   Oh, I don’t know if they’re on the US versions … but the UK Dr Who Collection blu-ray box sets have a Behind the Sofa watch-along: Katy is bonkers in them, bless her!   (Janet Fielding and Sarah Sutton — Tegan and Nyssa — are the other ones to watch out for: I keep thinking of Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg.)
