Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 14-1-2024 — World Logic Day.

14th January, 2024: World Logic Day.

Right … it’s Sunday.

A day I’m expecting to be quiet, peaceful … and possibly slightly boring!

We’ll have to see, there.

At any rate … ?

I’ve posted my written and video reviews of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle: Mutant Mayhem, last night.

Feel free to have a look at them.

Today’s questions will be answered in tomorrow’s Teaser.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.

*        Hello, Mum!

†        Oh, that it is, Olga.   Strange thing is, you might have caught her Radio 2 show, while you were here: she an occasionally thing called The Eternal Jukebox.   (She was quite a one for Techno, as well: but I’m guessing you’re not a fan … ?)

        Either way, you’re right: it’s one hell of a loss!

‡        That she was, Debbi: she was Radio 1’s longest serving DJ, and very knowledge about various shades of Techno.   Turns out her last show was December, ’23 … !   Ye gods, the woman lasted!

        Easy rhythms sounds like a good idea!   (Would “Jump Around” help?)
