Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 15-4-2022 — Brazil.

15th November, 2022: Brazil.

Right … there’s a good possibility there’s be videos, later!

For a start?

I’ve going to have my nephew, Jude, over, later.

And I’ll be posting a review of the next episode of The Abominable Snowmen.

Which looks good: and involves the return of the Ghanta!

Either way?

There’ll be video …
