Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 6th November 2023.

6th November, 2023.

Right now?

It’s comparatively early on a Monday morning: and Madison Avenue’s “Don’t Call Me Baby” is on, in the background.

Because you have to be playing something, right?

At any rate!

I’m up early, today.

Not because I’ve got my weight management meeting: but because I have a hospital appointment.

Nothing drastically serious.

But these things always seem to be awkwardly timed!

Sally Field, born November 6, 1946.

*        That’s about all I do know about him, Olga: well, that, and both Spielberg and Lucas were fans.   I think Spielberg did a film with him: but I couldn’t tell you for sure!

†        Hello, Mum!

‡        I saw the piece, Debbi: I just went and checked it out!   I can only hope the neighbours managed to keep their animals indoors.   Which remind me, I think Diwali’s on the 12th November, this year: we’ll probably have of the local Asian families setting off fireworks.

        Did Kurosawa do a movie with Spielberg?   I honestly don’t know!
