Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 12th August, 2025.

12th August, 2025: the day before Left-hander’s Day.


Right … it’s officially official: it’s the day before Left Hander’s Day.

So … ?

I’m hoping to people will want to have a go at tomorrow’s Teaser.

And encourage anyone who knows a lefty to give them a hug: and, possibly, a pair of left handed scissors.

Left-handed scissors, and left handed rulers, are handy …

I have to confess: I’ve been watching AppleTV’s Foundation series: as the third series is out.

I don’t know how close the series is to it’s source text.

But?

It’s an interesting watch: and and beautiful to look at.

The design work is incredible!

It’s official: the new phone has been delivered!

Turning up, yesterday, about five minutes before I was due to head out for my weight management meeting.

I’ve gained weight: which I wasn’t expecting.

But have set up my new gadget: an Oppo A40 phone.

Granted, the volume buttons are on the wrong side: they’re used to take screen shots, as well as control the volume, so that makes taking screenshots awkward.

I had trouble using gesture control, so switched back to button control.

On the upside?

The thing’s got a more recent version of the operating system, and cameras that are on a par, if not better, than my older phone’s.

And the actual transfer of data — photos, apps, contact details — from old phone to new went relatively well.

Given how anxious I felt about it’s delivery, and how jittery I felt setting it up?

It’s gone relatively well.

The Daily Teaser — 23-8-2015

You know, dreams are funny things.

I had one, last night.   Well … I probably had several: but one stood out.

Have you heard of poi … ?   They’re small weights made from various things, on the end of strings: and can be swung about in various patterns.


Well, I had a dream, last night.   Where I was threading a lot of ancient Chinese coins — the ones with holes in — onto some narrow sticky tape.

So I could use them as poi.

WHY I was doing this … ?

Well, I’m blowed if I know.

Dreams are like that, sometimes.   At least, mine are.

They’re made up from images from the day — some tape* I saw at work, or images in a game played on FB — put together in a way that makes perfect sense … 

When you’re having the dream.

I don’t know about you … but mine don’t, in the morning …
