Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 6th July, 2022.

6th July, 2022.

It’s official: Sajid Javid, and Rishi Sunak — former Health secretary and former Chancellor, respectively — resigned their posts, last night.

As I write?   Radio 4’s Today programme is telling us about further resignations.

I’m … concerned about Mr Sunak’s going.

OK, he’s been replaced: by Nadhim Zahawi.

But I’m very concerned.

Will this mean the £650 Cost of Living payment still go through?   Or not?

What about the £400 energy payment?

‘Concerned,’ possibly doesn’t start!

All that aside … ?   I’ve had the engineer down: to look at my washing machine.

His diagnosis of why it was acting up … ?

Was that the control board — mother board logic board, what have you — had gone.

He’ll be back, next Tuesday, with a replacement: thankfully, one that’s covered by the warranty!

I’m looking forward to that!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 6th July, 2020.

6th July, 2020.

Hmmm … 

I think I’m going to need a piece of paper: purely and simply so that I can put a sign in my front door.

Or in my window.

I’m selling off my kid sister’s old laptop: as she’s got a new one.

I’ve replaced the version of Windows on it, with the most recent version of Ubuntu*†.

As the version of Windows was refusing to connect to Wifi … or ethernet, USB peripherals, the built in DVD drive, what have you.

Oh, and the battery’s iffy: the thing works well enough, plugged into the wall.

Whether I’ll be able to sell it … ?

I don’t know: we’ll have to see.
