After a hectic few days of meetings, the clean-up begins.
(one of mine from the @cartoonmovement.com )

What about the bum bum?
Wash you bum bum
Wash you bum bum
Every single day
Wash you bum bum
Wash you bum bum
Wash the dirt away
Now the bum bum squeaky queen
But there’s no towel to be seen

But we can alwayts shake it
Shake it shake it shake it
we can alwayts shake it
Shake it till it’s dry
Okeh

What about the bum bum?
Wash you bum bum
Wash you bum bum
Every single day
Wash you bum bum
Wash you bum bum
Wash the dirt away
Now the bum bum squeaky queen
But there’s no towel to be seen

No deal. No consequences for no deal. Dignity burned. Crimes rewarded. International reputation in the toilet.
Well done everyone involved.

It's raining tacos
From out of the sky
Tacos
No need to ask why
Just open your mouth and close your eyes
It's raining tacos

A Friday visit to #RejectionIsland, this week for a rendezvous.

"Whatcha doing 'cos we'll be rendezvousing
And you know we'll be getting some
Getting jiggy just for fun"

Starting the day with some sophisticated artwork. My contribution to the 'Out Of Line' exhibition at One New Street Gallery, Herne Bay.

Omg I went for a stroll around Herne Bay & stumbled upon a bunch of no good delinquents ruining the seaside with their graffiti

It's that day of the year again. A host of the UK's best cartoonists drawing horrible, wonderful things live for the benefit of the public.

Just head to Herne Bay and follow the howling noises.

A picture of a cartoonist. A picture that encourages you, yes you, to get on a train, bus, car or donkey and make your way to Kent to support satire in challenging times and maybe even enjoy yourself.
