Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 14th April, 2026.

14th April, 2026.


OK … it’s Tuesday.

Which means it’s the day after my weight management meeting.

And … ?

I’ve put on two hundred grams.

That’s not want I wanted to hear: but I’m aware that it was under a kilo.

And that my overall weight is still under 100 kilos.

So that’s something to be grateful for.

I missed a call, last night: from my surgery.

So … ?

What I’ve done this morning is call them: and arrange for a call back.

Hopefully, that won’t take too long.

But the automated announcement the surgery has built into their phone system told me I was thirteenth in the queue.

Heigh — wait for it — ho!

~≈📞≈~

Blimey, that was quick!

They’ve just phoned: and re-arranged the appointment I had with the nurse practitioner.

And done that in record time!

Here’s hoping the new appointment goes well.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 14th April, 2024.

14th April, 2024.


Yay!   It’s Sunday!

Which, frankly, means it’s going to be quiet.

Which … you’d possibly already guessed.

Heigh ho!

Oh … I managed to catch the first episode of Criminal Record, last night.

The series is on AppleTV+, so you know: and caught my attention … because Peter Capaldi’s in it.

As it turns out?

The main character is played by an actress called Cush Jumbo.

Who — as it turned out — played Lois Habiba in Torchwood: Children of Earth*: the last time — to my knowledge — she and Capaldi worked together.


I knew I recognised her from somewhere!

~≈Ü≈~

At any rate … ?

The show’s interesting: and vaguely — very vaguely! — reminds me of The Silence of the Lambs.

With nastier sound effects!

The Daily Teaser — 14-4-2015

You know, I think — possibly — I’ve done something … provocative.

Possibly.

You know I’m a Terry Pratchett fan, yes?   And one saddened by his passing.

And angered — and saddened — by his contracting Alzheimer’s Disease: especially considering the condition killed a beloved grandmother.

With the election coming up … ?

The BBC are doing a #BBCAskThis hashtag: where you can submit a question — via a short video — and send it to them.

One like this … 


Whether it get’s asked, I don’t know: I don’t know that I’ve phrased it well enough to be aired.

But that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be asked.
