Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 10th September 2026.

10th September, 2026.

That’s odd … 

Blogger’s not uploading photos!

Neither on Safari, nor Firefox.

Nor on Google Chrome.

What’s happening, there, I wonder?

I have no idea: But if you do, please tell me!

~≈📸≈~

In other news?

The 47th President of the USA is going to break a promise.

He’s told the voters of America that — should the upcoming mid-terms elect Republican majorities in both houses — he’ ll make sure US voters get $5000.

I don’t know about the legality of that: nor the wisdom.

But … ?

I think three things.

1. The President is talking crap.
2. The President is talking bollocks.
3. Or the President is talking out of his arse.

It’s going to be one of the three …

Here’s a thought …

“We don’t have to know,


only to be:

let go the jumble of worn words,


reason and vanity.”

From Star by Day, by H. D.   (September 10, 1886 – September 27, 1961).

And a composition …

The next ten question sets are on 11th September, and 9th October: they’re the Nine-Eleven attacks and The Nightmare Before Christmas.

The next twelve question set is on 16th October: it’s about The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Your comments, and today’s answers, will be published in tomorrow’s Teaser.

AI is avoided when writing these questions.

Answers are as accurate as possible: at the time of writing.

Decisions about scores are final.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.

*        Hello, Mum!   (Well done: 5/5!)

†        Welcome back, Irene.   (Question three, yesterday, was ‘Education’, rather that ‘Attack’).

‡        Richelieu wasn’t in the Spanish Inquisition, Debbi: he was French for starters!

        The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe’s worth a go, I think.   Although the Christian messaging’s fairly in your face: compared to Tolkien.
