Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 13th December 2023.

13th December, 2023.

It’s officially Wednesday.

And … I’m definitely feeling a little bit tired.

Late night reviews are unhelpful, like that.

I’m up slightly earlier — again! — as I’ve got a repairmen in to fix my bath.

He’s hear now, I should add.

The reason this post is late?

Is because we had a hell of a time, finding the tap that turned off the water supply.

Heigh ho!
