Possible New Book.
« on: February 18, 2011, 08:02:08 PM »
The guys who are working on the Beau Peep computer game heve offered to help get a new book on the go. Andrew has spent hours scanning in a lot of material that hasn't previously appeared in book form and we're hoping to get something out later this year. It will be one of those self-publishing deals which are made available through Amazon. I'll keep you all up to date.

It's a cartoonists' term. A secret code that laymen, masons, and underlings aren't privy to.

I'm surprised he let it slip. It may cost him his grundle.
I apologise, in advance.

I'm surprised he can still find his grundle.

Yippy!

Oh, yes - indeed. Yippy! Finally, I can extend my collection, and add to Book 8.
I apologise, in advance.

Doesn't he wear it around his waist?

It was on that slatted shelf you sometimes get under coffee-tables, when I called in to Roger's house recently. Normally one would keep it in the loft, but it was nearly Christmas.

What have you got against shelves?

You do know don't you that you can pick up many of the books for around 65 pennies? (abebooks.com).

One of these days, I should scan and make a website for book #2 as I did for book #1 as they are the two that are hard to find.

Try and think. Where were you when you last had them?

No, the easiest way is to keep looking; when you get to the last place, there they'll be!

Please do.  I don't have #2 or #3 and this is probably the only way I shall get to read the vintage Roger & Andrew work.
