Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 23rd July, 2026.

23rd July, 2026.


OK … Amazon … !

I book a couple of books, recently, from Lulu.com.

A couple of Ogron themed ones, so you know.

These two;



Buy ’em if you like Ogrons!

Ogrons or otherwise, the books, and Lulu, aren’t the problem.

The problem was Lulu’s delivery partner: dear old Amazon.

I will give Amazon credit for getting the books to me on time.

But?

I’m in Flat Two: and get on well with the neighbours in Flat Five.

Keep that in mind, OK … ?

Yesterday, when my nephew was over, I got a text message to tell me my package had been delivered.

So I wondered out to the communal letterboxes: to find mine was empty.

And a package for Number Five on top of the letterboxes.


So … ?

I panicked a little: but checked the Amazon notifications on my phone.

To find the driver had put my package … in Number Five’s letterbox!


Yes: the residents of Number Five where happy to get my delivery out of their letterbox: especially as I took their package up to them.

Yes: I have sent Jeff Bezos a snotty email.

And yes, I have filled out the relevant form on Amazon’s site.

But I have to ask: how are is it, to tell the difference between ‘2’, and ‘5’?

Honestly … !

Just as a last thought?

My nephew, Jude, was over, last night: and very helpful … !

Especially as he was making another video … !


On the upside?

I think I surprise him.

He used a piece of music from a rapper called Common … and pleasantly surprised to find out I’d heard of the guy.

Common’s in Silo, after all … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 14th June 2026

14th June, 2026.


Right … 

I’ve had ongoing discussions with BT: about upgrading my internet connection.

Originally?

I’d put in a request on 28th May, when the company reminded me I was up for renewal.

Only to be told the upgrade was cancelled … as they thought I lived next door … !

It’s taken approximately two and a half weeks, and a lot of calls, for them to correct the mistake — if that’s the right word — upgrade the information on the systems, and name a date for the upgrade.

This coming Thursday, between 13·00 and 16·00 in the afternoon.

Here’s hoping the promised speeds are worth the ƒ®ç∞ïng wait … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 23rd July, 2018

23rd July, 2018


Yep, I’ve got today off: and frankly?

House work beckons.

As does ironing shirts, washing pants, panicking about money, sending emails, putting teatowels on soak, and possibly a few other things.

Taking out my bin bags may be needed … 

Or possibly needful.

I don’t know, quite yet.

Either way?

I may just have to catch a movie or something.

But what’s frustrating?

I’m a bit of a fan of a few TV shows.


Quite a few.

The fact most of them don’t have new episodes dropping?

Well …
