Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 28th November 2025.

28th November, 2025.


OK … I caught a movie, last night.

And, hopefully?

Will have my written and video reviews up by Sunday.

I have to say this, though … the film in question is very good …

I have a confession … I have an odder than usual ear worm, today.

Yes: The Big Bang Theory’s Sheldon Cooper is playing the bongos at me!


Why … ?

If I knew that, I could earn a fortune … !
