2015-01-19 RSPB Birdwatch

Jan21
by on 2015-01-21 at 18:01
Chapter:

The weekend of 24-25 January 2015 is the date for the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch, so you’ll need to get ready to count!

RSPB were interested enough to publish today’s comic on their blog… so if you arrived here from there WELCOME.  Please consider leaving a comment to say you’ve been here.  Thinking about it, quite a few of comics from the past have been about birds, RSPB or wildlife in general.

2015-01-03 Itchy and Knee in Stir Fry Crazy

Jan03
by on 2015-01-03 at 15:45
Chapter:

May I take this opportunity to wish to all my readers, non-readers, search-engine-robots and those-who-are-too-young-to-ask-questions (those especially), a very happy and healthy arbitrary-annual-date-roll-over-moment; and best wishes for the period-until-the-next-one.  In particular, those who celebrate a quarter to four o’clock in the afternoon* of thirds of Januaries – joy to you… about… NOW!

I’m sure that Itchy and Knee would wish for the same, if they would only stop squabbling for a little bit.

Knee: But let's see you Wok the Wok...

2014-09-28 Itchy (but not Knee) in Brain Worm

Chapter:

Itchy gets a starring role today (Knee was nowhere to be found when I wanted to sketch him.) My mother-in-law gave me this word to keep. Thanks Barbara 🙂

Oh, and here’s the small beaded rhinoceros we bought on a street corner, directly from the artist, in Johannesburg.  It seems to be settling in well to the late summer in England:

Chapter:

After quite a hiatus, I found a real, pukka, Invisibules comic inside my head. Just like the olden days!

— Footnote
Purists might put the pause between the two tees, viz. glot-tal, but I imagine that’s why that Invisibulean still needs to practise. I can only report what I observe.
