It has been like that before anyone noticed for longer than I thought it would.
Clumsy rhetoric. I'll have to deduct points.

Sounds good to me. The clumsy rhetoric not the decudtion of points. Or the typo.

Mince, when I go out for an evening with my wife, I like to wear a sombrero and climbing boots. (Of course, that's not ALL I wear--that would be stupid. I wear a three-piece, pin-striped suit). Anyway, my wife says I look ridiculous when I'm, obviously, L.A. chic. How can I convince her about this?

Nige can give you tips , he knows the latest fashion. He once turned up on a date wearing a blue cardigan ( kinda like my granpa ) and he thinks he's cool like a cucumber!

Are you wearing the sombrero backwards? If not, that's your mistake.

Er.. it was a stylish "Blue Harbour" M&S cardigan. I thought it went beautifully with my pipe and slippers.
Lucy cooked the tea, so I've let her come on here for a short while before washing the dishes. I had to help her upload her avatar.

Next question. Sometimes I look at the work of other cartoonists and I think "Wow!" The drawing is beautiful and the wording is fabulous. I'm almost scared to ask. Am I toonosexual?

No, of course not. Admiring the work of others is not the same as taking a Beau Peep book down the pub for a drink, or - worse - snuggling up to one in bed. Provided you don't have loads of revealing sketches hidden under the bed (such as two-page spread versions), or any kind of blow up Vera that says: "Sock it to me, honeybunch! Yeah! Yeah!", then you need not worry too much.

Thanks again, Mince. I was worrying about nothing. I've only ever taken a Beau Peep book to the cinema. And then on for a meal. As for a "blow-up Vera"---heh! heh! I'd like to see YOU blow up a solid wood mannequin.

Hi Mince. I just wanted to know if you're any relation to PInce, the manager of MK Dons.

Probably don't know who M.K. Dons are. And you ask him if he is related to the manager. he does not know if he related to me

Sorry for the delay Roger. I'll get the original back to you as soon as I find my bicycle repair kit.

This site has been mucked around with on so many occasions no-one bothers anymore when they see oddities.
If NOTHING odd happened - now that would be noteworthy. ::)

"Sock it to me, honeybunch! Yeah! Yeah!",
I think if a woman uttered those words to me in an erotic, private moment I'd get the distinct impression that I had been catapulted through the space/time continuum to 1969 and I would deflate pretty quickly.
