...Window sill theatre


The Shadow fleet sets sail across the window sill


and discovers the new world


The native folk curse the fleet & drive them from their shores.


The fleet runs...


,but fate is note kind & serves an ill wind.


All is against them.


Destruction inevitable.


The native folk cheer & celebrate with a nice cup of tea.




...Window sill theatre; the last bastion of the slightly insane.

...so far so, so good , so what ?



Well the stats so far. (and please excuse me for being abit of a stats geek)
It seems that I have 20 common subjects for cartoons plus a big pile of random ones which are unclassified

These being :

1) Sheep 74 No
2) Fruit & veg 27 No
3) Randy (a rather violent bear) 4 No
4) Colin (a rather violet elephant & part time caped crusader) 10 No
5) Aliens 19 No ( not as many as I thought considering they are all around us. Or maybe its the government probing me) 19 No
6) Harrold ( a rather violent chap with a small furry creature fetish) 3 No
7) Ducks chickens & penguins (quack , cluck & skibardeedoo) 26 No
8) Zombies (oddly not rather violent) 7 No
9) Movies (hmm, mostly abridged versions of films) 9 No
10) Monsters (yay) 29 No
11) Sea life & death ( its a rather violent place, wet too don't ya know.) 19 No
12) Sailing ( I should try it some time) 41 No
13) Bugs (you cant make an anagram of this one) 24 No
14) Cat, mouse & kittens (Awww, cute :O) ) 21 No
15) Polar , panda & assorted bears (Your never more that 2 meters away from one) 20 No
16) Mr Death (The cheeky chap) 5 No
17) Ego, I & Id (me me me me me me me) 24 No
18) Cows ( Don't trust em) 11 No
19 ) Video games ( beep) 6 No (beep)......(beep)
20) Space doubt ( I am & I have) 11 No

The tally as it stands is 470 cartoons online. (which doesn't match the number by a long way in my books)
Now Flickr reckons my stream has been ogled 22,266 times since I started it which considering it was on the banned & blacklisted list I guess isn't so bad.
The first one uploaded Jan 18th 2006 & the last one today.
I still don't have a scanner and am grumpy

Oh and my book had some limited appeal, but was discontinued when it was found to block the u-bend.

So hence the cartoon , I think I deserve a cup of tea.

I like tea.

...rescue services. What's that Timmy ?


I'd like to think Tonto would have saved them all, but as we know he was allergic to dog hair, located in the wrong hemisphere for kangaroos, hadn't had a CRB check; therefore was barred from working around children and frankly had racial issues with his long time colleague Mr The Ranger. Despite working as a team for many a year he couldn't grasp why the arrogant ,self important swine still insisted on being called Lone.

...abnormal service shall be resumed a.s.a.p.

I shall resume this blog & my cartoon flickr site when I can sort out a new scanner an a method of fitting 70 minutes into each hour.

Until then why dont you just switch off your television set & go do something less boring instead.

...catching up

Work has taken over my days a little too much at the moment & hence I'm drawing very little & a bit randomly.
I haven't posted many recently either so this is just catching up with a few.


CSI Potatoe

Mr
Mr Potatoehead for some odd reason does make me smile
I wonder if they do a violent crime version ?.
Mash murderer ?.


Yeah , I'm sure it happens.


I seem to remember as a kid being horrified at the other kids pulling the wings off crane flies for fun.
I seem to always have been the one who gently puts spiders out doors instead of squooshing them. ( where they probably freeze to death instead )

....true facts about nature


True facts about nature #1 : The mountain goat.

It's a little know fact that mountain goats utilise sink plungers to aid them in their accent of steep slopes, where as the mountain lion prefers a system of electro-magnets.

(don't say you don't learn anything useful here)

...nose to tail


So I've got to go up to London at the weekend, which means driving in the most god awful traffic.
Hate it.

...food safety





Yes its a necessity , but I kind of get bored with the level of health & safety awarness being thrust at me every day .

I think I might produce a line of warning lables that just read, "Danger beware or everything"
just so I can cut through all the arse covering rubbish & safety training regimes & get on with my work.





There that's just about everything covered.
Now you've been warned and informed do you feel safer ?
