Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 4th May 2023.

4th May, 2023.


It’s got to be said: it’s voting day, today, in this part of the world’s Local Elections.

Local Elections for local people: they don’t want strangers here.


If you’ll forgive me quoting The League of Gentlemen.

At ANY rate, it’s local election day: and, frankly?

I’m planning my usual thing: and planning to spoil my vote.

To me, it makes sense as a protest vote: especially as I see no-one I want to vote for.

Including the local Tories.

I grant you, the current crop genuinely seem to want to build a cinema in town: that still doesn’t mean I’m going to vote for them.

Yes: it’s officially official.

Jude’s made another video.


And, as fun as it was, making it … ?

It’s not the one I know he wanted to make.

He’s got a GoPro camera, so you know: one that can record in 4k.

Which is where the problem starts: we’ve figured out how to sync his camera with various phones, and copy the footage to them …

But then uploading them to various free cloud services — Google Drive, in this case —, so we can download them to my computer … 

Is a serious faff.

It took me seven hours, overnight, to upload a two minute video to my Drive.

Faff?   Is possibly understating it!

I’m also very aware of something else.

The trailer for Dune Pt 2* has dropped: and looks interesting.

The fact I know one of the characters depicted is called Harah … is almost incidental!
