Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th September 2023.

5th September, 2023.

Right … it’s officially Tuesday.

And?

I’ve got Krazy Ken on, in the background: talking about dodgy TV deals.

It beats listening to the radio!

~≈¥≈~

Yes: it’s STILL Tuesday!

Which means … ?

My nephew, Jude, will be over.

There’s a good chance video will be made: and chicken bought.

If I can persuade him onto the bus!

*        I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed, Olga.   Which reminds me, I’ve got a sharps bin to get rid of!   (The weight meeting didn’t got too well: the weight’s going back up!)

†        Hello, Mum!

‡        We’d possibly be surprised, Debbi!   I’m just disappointed he’s not left-handed!

        It’s definitely one less job opportunity for Jude, I know that.   (We might be able to get something with a family friend: who owns a animal encounter group.)
