Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 15th September, 2023.

15th September, 2023.

Right … it’s Friday.

Which means … ?

I know one friends is currently being rained on in Durham.

There’s possibly a story, there …

And definitely watching TV: there’s another episode of Good Omens to catch.

*        Hello, Mum!

†        Oh … there’s an increase in meds involved … ?   Ah, yes would explain things, Olga!   That’s always seems to have an effect!   (The Trulicity I’m on?   Doesn’t seem to have as much of an effect on the weight as the Ozempic, did.)

        I’ve managed to get stuff uploaded: which reminds me, there’s something else I need to do!   Have fun at Sant3 … !

‡        It’s worth, Debbi: at least I think so.   It’s not for everyone, though!
