Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 15-7-2022 — Oppan Gangnam Style

15th July, 2022.

Yes: it’s true.

The Cost Of Living payments the government were due to start paying out, yesterday, started being paid out, yesterday.

I know of one person who’s had it.

That person wasn’t me.

Personally?

I’m expecting it to hit my bank account on pay day: at the end of next week.

Just when I don’t need it.

Even though I’m expecting it, then?

I’m going to be checking my account, today.

The sooner it’s in there, the happier I’ll be.

~≈£≈~

Oh, JUST in case you’re wondering?

My nephew’s YouTube channel is still active.

He’s uploaded a new video!

~≈£≈~

Let’s move on, shall we?

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

The quizmaster’s decisions about scores are final.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.

*        You’re right, Olga: I did.   I’ve corrected it, though: thanks for mentioning it!   As it turned out?   It only got as high as 27°C, in the end.   Unfortunately?   We’re predicted to hit 40° to 41°, next week.   I hope not: it’s uncomfortable enough, already.

        Quite how that runner coped?   I have no idea.   Saying that?   I get the impression British runners tend to train a lot, abroad: it’s supposed to help them acclimatise to acclimatise to conditions, where-ever the next big event is.   (Remind me to tell you about Mo Farah!)

        Yes, I swapped the names around, Olga^: my sense of humour gets a little puckish.   Thankfully?   Paul Reiser hasn’t started singing about spam!

†        Hello, Mum!

‡        It’s quite the resemblance, Debbi^, isn’t it?   Thankfully, in Stranger Things?   He’s not started singing the Spam song.   (Did you ever see Aliens?   His character’s a nasty piece of work!   Dr Owens, his Stranger Things character?   Is honest, rather than bad.   He comes over as capable of nastiness … but will warn you first.)

^        Apparently?   The next episode of Stranger Things has a character played by Robert Englund: Freddie Kruger, in over words.   The series has a habit of digging up actors who had hit movies in the 1980s.
