I think I just wanted to tell you that anyway.

I'm not running away from that side of my sexuality.

I'm not running away from that side of my sexuality.

There are many who would, Malc.


Look, I'd hate for anyone to think I was in the slightest bit homophobic. Some of my best friends lived next door to a couple who once went on holiday with their cousins who drove past a library every day (on their way to work) that once loaned out a book by Oscar Wilde.
I apologise, in advance.

It was good to see Iraq winning the Cup; and with a team representing many of the different factions from that country. Now why can't all the world's battles be played out on the sports field?

I joined up the Comics people and am getting Andy Cap daily in my email ? I got my first one today.

I don?t understand why they say ?Hi null? as a greeting ? but am hoping by the end of the week it makes sense.

If you don?t mind me saying, there was not much going on the right hand side of the comic ? I think Andy need to get himself a house cat or a potted plant.

I've never written "Hi, null" in my life! What IS this?

Mine arrives with the Null greeting also. Roger, it's nothing you've done, but the salutation that is electronically attached to every emailing of Andy Capp. I think we probably all missed entering our names somewhere when registering, and Null was the default name to send it to.
I apologise, in advance.

Good grief - you are so clever Tarqs.

How did Peepmaster get the double 'null' though?

He forgot to enter his name twice.

Ah.
I thought it was one hell of a spelling mistake to make from "Hi, Chalkie".

Malc, isn't this some ungodly hour for you to be up and about?

I think Malc has his postings set on a time delay, whereby they are delivered at an appointed hour whilst he sleeps.

Usually, the system explains the eccentric nature of the vast majority of Malc's posts that we have all come to cherish. This time, I believe, he just got lucky.


Thanks, Diane.
I apologise, in advance.

There is no such thing as an ungodly hour. Not for me at any rate. I love the early hours of the morning as I feel I have the whole world to myself. I often sleep in the early evening so I can work through till 3am then go to bed until 8am.

Depending on the job at hand.

I used to work on Dangermouse as a day job, go to the pub, get home for 10pm, work on cartoons through till 6am (drinking wine to stay AWAKE?) then sleep for 2 hours before getting up to go to work on Dangermouse again.
At this time in my life I was:
(a) animating on Dangermouse.
(b) animating on a cartoon series called Fiddly Foodle Bird.
(c) writing and drawing my Blacknose The Pirate strip.
(d) writing and drawing a Sunday strip for News Of The World

all at the same time (the strip work was done at weekends), and I was also playing three games of football a week and was a very heavy pub drinker.

I cannot believe how I did all that, because now I only need to look at the photograph of a pint of Guinness and I'm drowsy.

Malc, I think I had your heart attack.
