Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21st July 2026.

21st July, 2026.


Yes: it’s officially official: I’m going to be watching television, tonight!


Feel free to keep your eyes peeled for my review of “Home”, the next episode of For All Mankind!

~≈🪐≈~

JUST in case you’re following my weight loss journey?

I was at my most recent weigh-in, yesterday.

And … ?

I’ve lost half a kilo: just over a pound, if you want it in Imperial.

That’s good!

~≈𐄷≈~

As a last thought … ?

Andy Burnham has announced that — as from October — his government will be reducing VAT on domestic electricity, reducing it from five percent, to zero.

In order to help ease the cost of living.

It’s a nice idea, I think.

But?

I don’t think energy suppliers will reduce the cost to customers.

I think they’ll freeze the cost, rather than reduce the cost.

That way?   They can make more money without increasing prices.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21st July 2024.

21st July, 2024.


Right then … it’s Sunday … 

Which means I’ll be getting an early night, tonight: after all, I have an early start tomorrow: and on Tuesday.

I have to be in Basildon, on Tuesday!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21st July, 2020.

21st July, 2020.


Wouldn’t you know it … ?

The radio interview’s been paused: as Phoenix were having some sort of issue!

Well, I say paused … maybe postponed is the word: postponed until today.

At twelve.

Wish me luck, I think I’m going to need it.

Especially given it won’t be the only one today: I’ve the initial interview with the Work and Health programme, today … 

It’s a busy morning!

Busy enough that an old friend’s decided to earworm through my head …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21-7-2017

For once … 

For once, last night … ?

I didn’t actually watch a TV show.

Ahem!

I have to admit to having had the day off, yesterday.

Which … went … very … 

Slowly … 

And actually had me thinking an early night was a good idea.

Which — for once — was rather nice!

Not that I’m feeling any less tired … 

But there you go … !

The Daily Teaser — 21-7-2015

Hmmm … 

That’s … mildly frustrating … 

Did I tell you I’m working at the moment … ?

I’m working at the moment: and generally enjoying things.

But getting slightly itchy feet: thinking I could be doing a little better for myself.

So I tend to keep my eyes on shop front windows: so I can see where’s hiring.

I do know my local Starbucks is looking, to give you an example: having seen just such a ‘We Are Hiring’ poster in their window.

Having checked their website?

I found they wanted one thing, to check that I was genuinely able to work for them.

They wanted my passport.   Something I lost, a few years ago.

And replacing it is going to cost a few bob.

Now, as far as I can gather … ?   As far as I can gather, I’m going to need my birth certificate to renew my passport.

Which will be more money.

And frankly … ?

A little bit of digging, to find out where I can start.

You know … I might just have to get in touch with my local Citizen’s Advice Bureau.   Just so I can navigate my way through this lot …

The Daily Teaser — 16-7-2015: The Islamic Calendar

You know, I’m suffering.

SUFFERING!

Hideously and horribly.

But then again, it’s me own blessed fault: staying up late — watching Chappie and writing the associated blog post —on a night before an early start at work.

Still … ?

I’ve managed to catch the first movie I’ve seen for a while.

And it was certainly fun.
