That makes me happy.

For some reason I feel I now have some insight into what it's like to be Roger.

This is the first time I've seen this. Roger must have set it up. It's probably funded his trip to Portugal. I hadn't realised he was into mobile phone push technology.

Rok phone comics have been around for a while. I was commissioned to do some work for their 'Create Comics' library of images over a year ago, though I can't see my work on the site yet. I do recall however, that Beau peep was being offered in phone strip back then, although the site may not have actually been up and running at the time. It's run by good people though, so I'm sure it's all been done through the proper channels...whatever they are.
I apologise, in advance.

Rob Baker mentioned this on here some time ago. I have made no money from it. (As yet). The Star asked me to sign some stuff about electronic rights.

rotton gits!
People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

I hope Mince hasn't spoilt your holiday by bringing this up now, Roger.  ..0

Portugal. It's the bit on the corner of Spain. I went there once, and enjoyed it (apart from the time-share touts that constantly bothered you). I most enjoyed it when driving inland in a hired mini-moke, getting to villages away from the tourist-trail. Mind you, dining on lobster, al fresco, sipping chilled ros?, overlooking the sea at Albufeira takes some beating.

Fish 'n' chips on Padstow bay. Bliss!

Well, actually, fish doesn't as a rule (though a nicely battered haddock is hard to beat, as is a little morsel of smokie), but Arbroath is immense as dreich reminders of a bygone age go.
I apologise, in advance.
