Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 13th April 2026.

13th April, 2026.


OK, it’s officially Monday!

And … ?

I think that — once I’ve got home from my weight management class — I’ll go back to bed.

Early mornings can be a killer … !

Oh, did I tell you I’ve been playing around with Final Cut Pro?

I’ve been playing with Final Cut Pro.

And finally managed to work out how to make a project vertical, so I could make a YouTube Short on something other than my phone.


Here’s hoping it get’s a few views!

Did I mention I was floating around Wikipedia, yesterday?

I was floating around Wikipedia, yesterday: reading up about the Paul Hardcastle hit, “19”.


I knew most of the spoken audio came from a documentary: but hadn’t realised the documentary was called Vietnam Requiem.

Disappointingly?

The only version of the thing I could find on Amazon, was an out of stock VHS copy*.

It’s a shame it’s not on DVD or bluray.

Outside of the historical interest, it would be good to hear the song’s spoken parts in their original context†.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 19-4-2020: Ne-ne-ne-Nineteen!

19th April, 2020.


Yes: life under lockdown goes on: in all its joys, glories, ups, downs and … whatever else.

Stuff happens.

As does life.

As does … well … 

Possible tripping hazards.

I’m on Instagram, in case you didn’t know.

And had a couple of apparent young women follow me: young women who looked very similar.



Both of whom messaged me, fairly quickly.

With heart enough identical messages.

One — the one called Bellakumesnancy — was pretty honest: she ‘wanted to chat me up …’

And offered to send me picture … 

So long as she could send them to me on Google Hangouts … 

Which is where I politely said I didn’t trust, believed she was a scammer … 

And blocked her … whilst simultaneously deleting the chat.

I think I’ve just managed to avoid being cat-fished.

Debbi?    I think we have one for Sam … !

Just as a quick thought … ?

I am knackered … after a late night blog post: about the last two episodes of classic Dr Who story, The Faceless Ones.

You can read about it, here: or watch the video version.


I do know this much.

The Pauline Collins character is called Samantha.

So why Patrick Troughton calls her Sarah, at one point, I don’t know.
