Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-5-2025 — VE Day

8th May, 2025: VE Day.

Yes: it’s officially Thursday.

And, frankly?

I’m expecting to be bored witless!

Bar picking up some medications, that is!

Heigh … … ho … !

~≈Ω≈~

Did I mention I’ve woken up with an earworm … ?

I’ve woken up with an earworm: Moloko’s “Forever More”.

Why … ?

I don’t know.

But both song, and video, are hypnotic.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-5-2020: VE Day.

8th May, 2020.

It has to be said, there’s sadness in the musical world, over the past few days.

Florian Schneider of Kraftwerk was one.

Yesterday saw the death of noted rapper, Ty.

Who I know little of, but just just enough to know he was well thought of.   And who died at the age of 47.    That’s younger than I am!

The death that seriously saddened me?

Was the death, yesterday, of Sweetpea Atkinson, one of two front men for Was Not Was: possibly one of my favourite bands.

Sweetpea?

Where ever you are, mate, sing Crazy Water …

Life goes on, however sad it may be, sometimes … !

Life goes on … 

Even though life goes on under lockdown.

Just so you know, that’s the video for the Brentwood Mutual Aid group: who are doing a lot of volunteer work in Brentwood, during the Outbreak.

You can find the main group on Facebook.

But can also — if you need their help — phone 01277 424 953, to ask for help.

The Daily Teaser — 8-5-2014: VE Day

Hmmm … 

Is anyone ELSE having an issue with YouTube … ?

Let me clarify: is anyone else out there having issues using or accessing YouTube, using Safari 5.x, under Snow Leopard … ?

I know I am, as are others: going by what I can see of the YouTube forums.

I’ve tried my usual range of stuff: from clearing my copy of Safari’s caches and history, to system wide cache clearing, to dumping the relevant .plist files.

With no good result.

And, wouldn’t you know it … ?

Wouldn’t you know it, interacting with YouTube’s forum — trying to post questions myself — is ALSO affected by whatever’s causing the problem.

Grrrr … !

Hmmm … Let’s get a move, shall we?
