Today's BEANO has 7, count 'em, pages by me!

I'm in Exeter next weekend, l'm avoiding travelling after dark as l'm still suffering with pneumonia so come early!

I'm so sorry to hear this terrible news.

I agree. And don't get me started on Companies House new rules

Indeed he won't, l've been drawing him throughout the last 3 months! Including the fab 75th birthday issue! But l did it all while breathing poorly!

Seeing as no one reads my posts l feel it won't cause undue shock to announce that l've had pneumonia since the beginning of December, been treated at 2 hospitals & am officially "on the mend". By the last week of Feb l should be my old self, ready to meet Beano fans of old London town.

Anyone else binge watching Hoover and his Swiss Cheese analyses? (If you know, you know, if you don, it 's not what you think!)

What are "western comics"?

It's raining

TMI already

Very sorry to hear this dreadful news from my pal Moose, he and his wife Karen are such a great team. all the best.

Is this really the best 12? What about these: Liberty, Men O'War, Helpmates, Going Bye-Bye, Me and My Pal.

Only £4.50? Where can l get one that cheap!

I tried it but it's a bit arch for me. Another Walter Presents series, Astrid: Murder in Paris, is a little more natural and has a vague story arc which is more satisfying. Its entirely in French again. A remake in English, Patience, doesn't have the same feel.

Spring 2026, my first Comic Con of the year will be at Olympia in London! Come along, it'll be great.

4 months after cousin Pam told us she'd seen a group at the Cavern that lunchtime and we'd never guess what they were called (The Beatles, incidentally) she helped my sister Alison & me clear snow on Boxing Day 1962.
It snowed again & again & again... finally thawing in March 1963. It was cold.

One for the kids

The air does seem cleaner.

@okeating.bsky.social Hard to believe its 45 years but there we are. I gave up on the former Twitter a year ago but l've been hiding here hoping to bump into someone l know. It all seems to be cat pictures at the moment.

Two weeks from now, Birmingham! Come along (keep warm though!)

What?! Big news!

I was just talking about this the other day and we figured there were 15 different sizes before A sizes standardized things! Everyone remembers Foolscap but my favourite was Elephant!

@marklewisohn.bsky.social @thebeatlespix.bsky.social @beatlespod.bsky.social isn't it high (geddit?) time we got this SDE from Apple/Calderstone/UMG?

Good ol' Lucy!

I said Hello to Leonard Rossiter and he said Hello to me.
