I decided to post the daily diary comics I did while on holiday in Norfolk last week. I’m planning to post one a day.
I’m finding using real paper a lot of fun — pencil then ink then erase pencil. It’s a lot easier than using the graphics tablet, even though there’s no UNDO button for the ink. And you know my drawing skills can use any help available.
In case you are wondering, Jules and Sandy are characters in an old BBC radio comedy series, Round The Horne, which we often listen to on long drives. The appalling puns help to keep us alert, and anyway I can steal the less risqué ones for Invisibules jokes.
Furthermore, there are those who say Hodgkinson himself is not above suspicion…

Today’s Invisibules comic has been replaced by a short animation I made for the birthday of a friend. You can find it on youtube by following this link. “Normal” service will be resumed eventually.
Based on a true story. Only the names have been changed to protect the ornithologically challenged.
EDIT: fixed balloons in third panel — thanks mpj
