It’s nearly Christmas! And yes, the Coke trucks have been on the telly for at least two weeks by now. Holidays are coming.. holidays are coming… etc.
The floor is made of lava
But don’t cats spend most of their days assuming the floor is made of lava anyway?
Games
This is pretty much how I feel about gaming. I tried getting into around the time of the Sega Mega Drive but I quickly got bored with it.
Aaaaaaaaaa!
Guy Fawkes Night
Tonight is Guy Fawkes night. Be careful out there and keep your pets indoors, there’s going to be a lot of foreworks going off tonight…
Real horror
I can’t wait for GoComics to restart and to return to drawing three times a week. Then I can go back to constructing stories rather than producing one offs, which at the moment are tending to react to the day’s news and just get a little grim. I’m using Scrumpy, who is very much the manifestation of my cynical pessimistic side far too much these days… I want to produce more zany Jonesness, or gentle Chumleyness.
Incidentally, we’ve heard gtom GoComics towers, and there’s no chance Sherpa is going to relaunch this year. They still have no idea when it’s going to begin again, only that it will. Eventually. So it looks like Smith will be returning to it’s three-a-day schedule sometime in early summer 2018, as that’s when the daily reruns on Tapas are going to catch up with real time.
Chandelier
I’m not sure where Jones is today – it looks like some sort of National Trust property judging by the decor.
Tis the season
This year’s finds have included Pumpkin Spice Instant Quaker Oats and Pumpkin Spice Baileys. This in a country that wouldn’t have known what a spiced pumpkin was five years ago.
DAB
I’m playing catchup again, as usually happens when I’m doing a show. This was drawn on my lap during rehearsals for the musical Fame, which explains the wobblier than usual line.
Grey rabbits
OK, that’s greys dealt with. You won’t see them again in this comic.
