Loved the Beau Peep books (didn't get the Daily Star) for years.  Might have been last year I found this site and read it for some time as a guest.
Tried to register but system did not let me.  Kept doing this on and off (also assumed you did not want additional members).  Then saw the  'how to register' but was still unable to do so.  In desperation, I found the website designed Nigel Sutherland and emailed him, requesting help in registering.  He passed it on to you - and the rest is history.

As we can't buy the books (Yes, I know they are on ebay, but I have yet to dip my toes in that puddle), reading and printing the weekly strip is good for my (and the wife's) health.  Humour is the best medicine (apart from penicillin).

I have a predilection, but I'm not sure what for yet. Certainly not pomegranates.

And before anyone jumps in, I don't want castigating.

It wouldn't be for the 4.40 at Kempton Park, by any chance? If so, we need to talk...
I apologise, in advance.

Not since the penicillin kicked in, no.

Roger likes a flutter. Medication wouldn't be appreciated there I don't suppose.

Thank you Tom.  I love the limerick, and have repeated it to others.
