Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 7-1-2025 — John the Forerunner

7th January, 2025: John the Forerunner.


Right … it’s officially Tuesday … and Radio 4’s Today programme has a piece on, about the way McDonald’s staff are being treated.

It’s an on-going thing for the company: some of its franchise managers make Harvey Weinstein look good!

That’s certainly not making the company look good!

But that’s not really relevant to my day.

It’s a day where I have nothing planned: and I’m feeling vaguely lost.

After all, the past couple of weeks have been busy … !

~≈🎅🏻≈~

At any rate … ?

Yesterday was Monday: a day that saw me at the dentist in the afternoon … and at my weight management meeting in the morning!

Thankfully?

I’m down four hundred grams: just shy of a pound.

That’s pretty good: post Christmas!

~≈🏋️‍♂️≈~

As a final thought … ?

You’re possibly aware I claim an extra benefit: called Personal Independence Payment, or PIP.

I had thought I’d be eligible for a free bus pass as a result.

After a phone call, yesterday … ?

It turns up I’m not.

I don’t have enough points in the relevant section of my claim.

That’s a bit of a git: free bus travel could’ve been helpful.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 29-8-2020: Bring me the Head of Saint John the Baptist

29th August, 2020.


Right … 

I’ve officially had a late night.   I’m officially tired … 

But I’ve also seen another episode of Disney+’s The Mandalorian.


It’s a good episode: I’m just not convinced it’s the best in series.

Still … 

As much as it took me a while to notice … it’s nice to see that title linked to that number … again …

I don’t know if you follow the news: but I’m sure you’ve heard the news of the death of actor, Chadwick Boseman, the star of Marvel’s Black Panther.

Of colon cancer, at the stupidly young age of forty-three.

I’d only seen him in Black Panther: but came away impressed, both with it, and his performance.

But lord … that’s one hell of a loss …
