1703.09 LOGAN

A nice little visit to the pictures with my best bud Mr C. A chance to catch up in the bar with a pint in the bar before the film.

1703.07 MEET ROLLO (AND MY FIRST PAID GIG)

Meet ROLLO my new (hopefully weekly) mini webcomic. In the same week I picked up my first paid cartooning gig. I've got a character design for a company's marketing requirements. Exciting times!

1702.26 TO THE EDGE: TOM SIMPSON RIDE

I've loved cycling for many years. What is it about cycling that I find appealing? I think it's the accessibility and the fact that you don't have to be the best to get something out of it. Recently I've struggled with my cycling mojo and aside from a few short rides, commutes and turbo sessions I haven't had a decent day out in the saddle in ages.

1702.28 HOW DO YOU EAT YOURS?

No I'm not talking about Cadbury's Cream Eggs I am of course talking about the fact that today is Shrove Tuesday, otherwise known as PANCAKE DAY! 

1702.25 EVIL TAKES A DAY OFF #02

So here it is, issue 2 of "Evil Takes a Day Off". Like the musicians' second album I found this one difficult and it went through many revisions. There's only so far you can go with a piece before you lose sight of the goal so I present it here for your enjoyment. This for me is still a learning experience and if I'm honest I'm enjoying every minute.

1702.23 TWITTERVERSARY

Ten years ago I was looking for a service that would allow me to publish 'status updates' on my website and blog. Something small, short and snappy that I could perhaps update over WAP (do you remember WAP?) and not have to fire up the old desktop computer.

1702.19 THE ROLLERCOASTER

When Ronan Keating sang "life is a roller-coaster" I think he could have been describing the last few days of my life. Emotionally it's been joy to traumatic and everywhere in between.

1702.14 I LOVE YOU ££££ MUCH!

It's St. Valentine's Day today which means lovers all over the world will be celebrating this evening. But what are we exactly celebrating?

1702.12 SUNDAYS USED TO BE SPECIAL

When I was a child Sundays used to be a time you spent with your family, TV was rubbish and it was illegal for shops to open (although some did so illegally). So what did we do? Well I used to visit my grandparents, Sunday dinner was mandatory and I remember listening to the radio quite a bit. I'm not from a religious background but I felt Sundays were a special day.

1702.09 UTOPIA ACHIEVABLE?

Watching Star Trek for all these years means I've been curious about the economy of the future. Captain Picard said that in the 24th century that people pursue personal enrichment rather than material items. But people still own property, have businesses and still acquire 'things'. So how does that work?
