Sunday 17 September 2023

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 17th September 2023.

17th September, 2023.


Right … it’s now Sunday.

And … ?

I’ve the soundtrack for Chernobyl — the TV show — on in the background!

It’s still as powerful as, and as unnerving, it was.

We weren’t.

But … ?

I’ve another review done: and thought I’d share it.

*        A cake shop!   Ye gods!   That kid really does have my sympathies, Olga: that is a bit unfortunate!   Mind you … it would probably give his parents an excuse to trial diabetic friendly cake!
        I’m told those pumps can be handy: but it’s frightening to think of someone so young wearing one!
        At any rate?   Have a good time, don’t get wet … and you may find this interesting!

        Hello, Mum!

        I think Rowan and Martin would agree with you there, Debbi!   And I was always more of a Frankie Goes to Hollywood fan!

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.

†   Your Facebook, X/Twitter, Blogger, Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn profile are acceptable. I also like seeing folks webpages.
