OK, sue me.

For once?

I actually fancied watching a film …

But simultaneously … ?   Simultaneously not watching one.

If that makes sense?

Much as I really do fancy catching the Italian version of Reanimator -- made in 2017, and called Herbert West - Re-Animator -- I also fancied an early night.

But also fancied breaking the rules, a little, and blogging … without making a video, for once.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2nd November, 2018.

2nd November, 2018.

Yep: Apple have finally and released an updated Mac mini.

At bloody last!   And WAY too long after my birthday for my comfort!

It’s rather good: bar the solid state drive size — 128 gigabytes on the baseline model — and an a slightly more powerful video card?

An it looks like you can rev up the RAM, yourself: although I could be wrong*.

It’s actually a better specced machine than my 2017 iMac!

I might just start saving up … !

The Daily Teaser — 16-12-2015: Arthur C Clarke

Right … I now have … a day off … !

Frankly … ?   It’s one I’m hoping to write a few Teasers on: as well as make the associated videos.

It MIGHT not go that way, though.

Remember me saying that my broadband usage seemed suspiciously high, over the past few months?

Well, BT are due to phone me, today.   One of my neighbours has suggested I turn off the BT Fon feature — that let’s people use the BT Wi-fi service — as doing so had helped her in similar circumstances.

Hopefully … ?

They’ll be able to talk me through the relevant procedure.

Although, to be frank … ?

I’m starting to wonder how much help it CAN be … ?

I’m not losing hope about the situation.   But I AM feeling mildly cynical about the whole thing.

The Daily Teaser — 2-11-2014

You know, as I get older, the harder I get to impress.

Or maybe I don’t.

At any rate something my long term readers will realise is that I’m a Dr Who fan.

And one who’s very impressed with Peter Capaldi’s first season, thus far.

Last night’s big reveal — both of the Cybermen, tucked away in an alternative dimension connected to the doors of Saint Paul’s Cathedral, AND of Missy’s identity — was one hell of a big reveal.

A VERY big reveal.

Something else has just occurred to me.

I’m not sure if Danny will survive being in the Nethersphere: last night’s episode doesn’t tell us if he presses that big red button, or not.

But one basic idea of Dark Water/Death In Heaven seems to be this: that Clara wants to enter the underworld, itself, to rescue her beloved.

I’m no expert — I’m a long WAY from being an expect — but I know some Greek myth.

And can spot a version of the tale of Orpheus, even from here.

I’m wondering … In Dr Who’s update of the tale, what’ll happen when Clara turns around … ?
