Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 14th December 2024

14th December, 2024.


That could be interesting … 


The BBC has announced the release of a re-animated version of classic Dr Who story, The Savages.

Or, at least, the blu-ray version is: it’s available to pre-order on Amazon’s UK branch, and due for an actual release on 24th March, 2025.

Frankly?   That’s something to look forward to.

I use Facebook: and have for many years.

It’s changed, over the years.

You used to able to throw a sheep at people: now you can’t.

That’s possibly a very trivial example.

Something that I had noticed, many years ago, was that Mark Zuckerberg — the site’s owner, and founder — had something of an anti-Trump fell.

But this year?

Has donated money to Trump’s inauguration fund.

I realise businesses like Mate, and FB, have to curry a certain amount of political favour.

But that’s not necessarily something I find comforting.

The Daily Teaser — 14-12-2015

Oooooohhhh, but that’s good … 

Right now … ?   Right now I’ve just managed to get myself my first cup of tea of the morning.

Frankly, the caffeine’s welcome.

Initially … ?   Well, initially, today was going to be a day off.

Until yesterday, that is.

When one co-worker had to pull out of the shift he’s was scheduled for.

I’m happy to fill in, given notice: and happily did.   The extra money’s welcome.

THEN I managed to get to bed, last night, at about midnight.   After all, doing a shift, today, meant catching up with Teaser writing, and emailing BT about my broadband usage.

The latter’s on-going: I seem to have used a lot more, in the past few months, so was emailing them to clear up on a point.

At any rate … ?

It means, this morning … ?

Well … 

That caffeine’s definitely welcome … !
