Well done admin. After a few hiccups nook seems to be working again and with some new frills. So, (guarded) congratulations. Lets hope it continues to do so.
Doesn’t look much different, except that a lot of posts have disappeared - so, nothing new there.
Posted Thursday 18th, 5.15 p.m.
It seems posts are getting through but not comments, except for Lady C who seems to have the magic somehow.

What do retired people do all day ? Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day I went into town and went into a shop. I was only in there for about 5 minutes. When I came out there was a cop writing out […]
Saw Diehard 4.0 at the weekend. My opinion, don’t bother. The plot is ridiculous; a disillusioned security expert decides to teach US national security a lesson by recruiting a team of hackers, whom he subsequently wipes out with professional hit-men, and hacking into everything: traffic management, stock exchange, tv& radio - all simualtaneously. The action […]
Sousveillance is the recording or monitoring of real or apparent authority figures by others, particularly those who are generally the subject of surveillance.
The term “sousveillance” stems from the contrasting French words sur, meaning “above”, and sous, meaning “below”, i.e. “surveillance” denotes the “eye-in-the-sky” watching from above, whereas “sousveillance” denotes bringing the camera or other means […]
Question for Admin. How many nooks, nookers, nooksters, nookites are there? The number of new nooks increases daily but it seems the vast majority of these never post. Are there any sats? Can we see them?
