Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21-12-2025 — Dalek Day.

21st December, 2025: Dalek Day.


Right … it’s officially Solstice.

Which means it’s the shortest day of the year, and it’s going to start getting dark, early.

Does it mean we have an excuse to start singing?

Not if you have a voice like mine!

Some else can do the job!

Did I mention yesterday wasn’t the Solstice … ?

Yesterday wasn’t the Solstice.

But did see my nephew pay a visit: and upload a video.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21-12-2021: Ring Out Those Solstice Bell

21st December, 2021.


Right … it’s officially Tuesday: in the quiet week leading up to Christmas.

Yes: I’ve written themed Teasers for those!

At any rate?   

I’ have free time: quite a bit of it, given the circumstances.

So I’ve enough time to catch a film.

We’ll have to see.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-10-2020: World Teachers Day

5th October, 2020.

Right … 

I’ve running on something of a lack of sleep.

Which is lovely: when you consider I’ve have a meeting with the Shaw Trust, at ten.

Yes. 



We’ve had a police incident, outside Tomlinson Court.

Late on a Sunday night.

One of my neighbours was watching: it seems someone tried kicking the door down.

I’m … 

Well … 

I’m not happy: I was in bed when it all kicked off!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22-12-2019: Solstice

22nd December, 2019.


Yep: it’s Sunday.

A quiet Sunday … where I’m betting the shops are going to be jammed.

And the streets extremely damp.

Right at the moment … ?

At the moment, south east England isn’t having a heat wave or wildfires.

Quite the reverse.

Can I make a confession … ?

I’m in one or two Terry Pratchett groups, over on Facebook.

And, inevitably — as we’re talking about J. K. Rowling’s comment about transgender women — we get … language.

No, not THAT kind of language.

We get meaningless acronyms.   Or, at least, acronyms we’ve never heard before, and would appreciate an explanation of.

The one that got me bothered?   TERF.   Apparently, it’s stands for Trans-Exclusionary-Radical-Feminist.

Granted, I realise that text messaging by phone encourages acronyms.

As do character restricted services like Twitter.

But … ?

On something like Facebook, or in a news article, essay, or even in a blog post, like this?

I’d appreciate an explanation of whatever it is you’re talking about.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21-12-2017: Solstice

Hmmm … 

I’ve just noticed something on the BBC’s news site.

Apparently?

According to this piece, GCHQ’s cyber spies have over-achieved, this years: and are now able to do all sorts of hacking stuff.

And have been lauded for it by MPs.

I keep thinking about General Melchett in Blackadder Goes Forth.

And wondering what any of those MPs will be saying about foreign security officers, behaving the same way.


Yes … the General seems to some it up, well …
