Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 27th October, 2022.

27th October, 2022.


Yep: it’s officially the case that I woke up with an earworm.

The faux African Zabadak, by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Titch.


So … ?   I’m trying to shift it out of my head: with another song.

Steeleye Span’s Gaudete didn’t work … so I’ve got Newcleus’ Wikki Wikki song on.


That seemed to work.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 27-10-2020: Oh, Mr Cleese … !

27th October, 2020.


Right … I am officially bound and determined to watch TV, tonight!

Frankly?   I’m up to episode six of Watchmen: one I’m looking forward to.

We get to see more of a meticulously crafted background world!

If you’ve not seen it?   Feel free to, it’s worth you’re time!

Right at the moment … ?

It’s 8:15.

Which means?

It’s thirty-five minutes since I got a scam call from an Indian call-centre, claiming to be from Amazon.

The woman I got through to, after going to through the automated part of the call, ending up putting the phone down on me: as she got a pile of abuse abuse from me.

I’ll apologise … 

But, frankly, getting a scam call at this time of the morning is not something I react well to.

The Daily Teaser — 27-10-2015

Well, there’s a thing … 

The government’s Tax Credits reforms — the ones I talked about yesterday — have been delayed by the House of Lords.

Which means the Chancellor’s has to rethink his plans for reform.   It also means the House of Lords may have problems.

As, if I’ve understood things correctly, means it’s gone beyond it’s allowed range of actions, in delaying the reforms.

Personally … ?

Personally, I’m not affected by the loss of tax credits.   Although I’m no worse off, as it delays the introduction of the higher, National Living Wage.

Something I’m not expecting to see for a while, anyway.

The other reason I’m looking sideways at this?   Is that I’m not a Conservative voter.   Seeing a government I didn’t want, or vote for, getting a bloody nose?

Is enjoyable.

Still … 

We’ll have to see what happens …
