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 …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 10th September, 2019.

10th September, 2019.


Right … 

I can officially — ha! — say that I managed to catch some TV, last night.

The first episode of Chernobyl, so you know.

It’s … 

Well, it looks rather good: and will do me good, until my favourites re-start.

Or El Ministerio del Tiempo’s fourth season turns up!

~≈§≈~

As for Parliament?   At least the House of Commons?

Well … ?

I know my usual position is the PMQs — Prime Minister’s Questions —is possibly the most entertaining thing on TV: especially given the Brexit situation.

It turns out that — in watching Chernobyl? — I managed to get to bed early.

The parliamentary rioting didn’t finish until about two in the morning.

To top everything else?

I have a meeting at the Job Centre on Friday: quite why, I don’t know.

The problem?

Is that the central office tell me it’s at the office around the corner from me.

Of course … the the actual office … have told me the Job centre’s moved to the Town Hall.

I think the word is Hmmm …

The Daily Teaser — 10-9-2015

You know, I bought a little set-top box on Amazon.

A couple of weeks ago, now.

It’s a device that lets me view Freeview content — especially high definition Freeview content — on my TV.

Yes, I KNOW my new TV already receives — and can record —digital signals.

As the box ALSO does so … ?   It gives me an extra device to record stuff with.   A back up, device.

The only problem with that … ?

Is that the thing hooks up to the TV, with an HDMI cable: an extra one of those is ALREADY here, as I ordered it at the same time.

I ALSO ordered a cheap HDMI switch.    A little gadget that let’s me plug up to three HDMI equipped devices to my TV: and something I ordered at the same time as the set top box, and the cable.

They’re here.

The three-way switch isn’t.

I think that’s the last time I order from a third-party Amazon seller … who’s in Hong Kong … !

That switch is really taking it’s time … !
