Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 9th September, 2025.

9th September, 2025.

Yay!

He says!

I was at my weight management meeting, yesterday: and I’ve officially lost weight.

Two hundred gram, roughly half a pound.

So, at yesterday’s meeting, I was down to one hundred kilos, roughly fifteen — 15.75 — stone.

Which is an alarming number, when. you see it in imperial measures and remember what I weighed in my late twenties.

But it’s a lot better than it was, only four years ago.

So that’s something.

Oh, did I mention I’ve been sneakily watching season two of Wednesday?

I’ve been sneakily watching season two of Wednesday!

Billie Piper’s in it, in case you were wondering: playing a recovering pop star who’s now a music teacher.

Which is why I mention it.

It turns out Piper’s not the only singer-turned-actress to turn up in the show.

Nope: last night’s episode saw Lady Gaga turning up as a ghost!

She gets everywhere!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 9th September, 2018.

9th September, 2018.

Yep: I have a chance, tomorrow: to get some sleep!

Frankly?   I’ll be looking forward to it.

The same way I look forward to tons of stuff.

Which is a clumsy intro to this piece on the BBC’s website.

Apparently?

NASA’s planned James Webb Telescope could find signs of extraterrestrial life.

How, I’m blowed if I could tell you.

But it’s something to keep an eye on.

Did we tell you Sandi Tokvig happy?   As she earn’s — in her own words — a ‘comfortable living.’

She said that in a response to a question at the Women’s Equality Party conference, a few days ago.

Seemingly, she gets some two fifths (2/5) — forty percent (40%) — of the pay of predecessor, Stephen Fry.

Personally?

I know she’s generally happy about her income.

But I’m mildly put out.

I’m a Dr Who fan: one hoping Jodie Whittaker’s on the same, comparative, pay as Christopher Ecclestone, David Tennant, Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi.

She’s doing the same job, after all.

Sandy’s doing Stephen Fry’s old job: visibly, and very capably.

She should be getting exactly the same pay.
