Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 11-1-2017

Right … 

You’ve possibly noticed something, just recently: the simple fact that I’ve had my router replaced.

The new one seems to be working well: although the real test comes when I stream some media through it.

We’ll have to see, won’t we?

At ANY rate … ?

At any rate, I’ve picked up my payslip for the week: I know how much I’ll be getting paid this week.

I think I owe a vote of thinks to the gods of overtime.

I’m also thinking of something else.

I’m thinking I’ll have enough in the bank to fund a shopping spree.

I’m thinking either a book or two or three.

Or that, considering I had more fun with them an my six year old nephew?   That a great big Marble Run would be good …

The Daily Teaser — 11-1-2016

JESUS!

I don’t know if I was ever a music fan.

Or a fan of David Bowie.

I DO know I, like many of us, had grown up on the man’s music: and thoroughly enjoyed the singles he’d put out over the years.

AND the few albums of his I’d bought.

I’ve woken up, this morning, and been shocked when I turned on the news.

David Bowie died, overnight, after an 18 month battle with cancer.

Someone who’d only released his most recent album on Friday — his 69th birthday.

I’m … 

Shocked.

Wilko Johnson survived pancreatic cancer: one of the nastier forms of the disease.

How on EARTH could David Bowie not?

Either way … ?

My condolences go to his family.

I know I’m in shock: their grief will only be greater.
