Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 29th June, 2023.

29th June, 2023.


It’s official: it’s rained over night!

And, by the sound of my neighbours, chatting outside … ?

We’re going to be expecting more, later.

I hope so.

After the recent heatwave, that’s going to be welcome.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18-8-2017

Dear god, two attacks … !

I don’t know if you’ve been watching the news?

But Spain has seen two — not one, two — terrorist attacks.

One in Barcelona, the other in Cambrils: by apparently Jihadist inspired attackers, driving vans at crowds.

I hope the fatalities are at a minimum: although I know thirteen are dead as a result of the Barcalona attack.

And, apparently?

Five of the attackers have been killed in Cambrils.

Though I hope as many of them are caught alive, as possible.

I think the victims, and their families, would appreciate hearing their excuse.

Something else I noticed in the news?

Was the situation in Charlottesville in the US: where the recent far-right marches left a left wing counter-protestor, dead.

It led to several executives leaving the business councils organised by President Trump: in response his bad handling of the situation.

I’m an Apple fan: one very aware that the company usually doesn’t get itself involved with politics: NOR make public statements about it.

So I’m VERY aware I was surprised that the company’s executive, Tim Cook has announced he feel’s US far right And Neo-Naziism is not a good thing: and that he’s authorised substantial company donations, to a pair of prominent Civil Rights groups, as a result.

Wonders will never start …

The fact that, in all this?

The fact that, in all this, I managed to catch Ben Wheatley’s very watchable Free Fire, last night?

Is almost incident.

I will say this about it: it’s a lot more watchable than Ghost in the Shell.
