Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 11th April 2023.

11th April, 2023.


Right … 

It’s officially Tuesday: and … ?

I’ve phoned the court service: to see what’s happened with my appeal.

The court service has emailed over the decision: which has gone in my favour.

I now have an official Limited Capacity for Work: and — hopefully — am due extra help.

Although — apparently — things have to be signed off by the relevant Secretary of State.

I think — now the bank holiday is over — that phoning the DWP may be a good idea.

We’ll have to see what happens.

~≈£≈~

At any rate … ?

I’ve finished watching the third season of For All Mankind: I saw the final episode on Sunday, and finished my review, last night.


Enjoy it!

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.
