Funny how one thing leads to another. The monsters came from the buffalo, but then I had such fun drawing the big guy at the back that I spent an hour today doodling thugs and villains. This one's my favourite.

Looks like a member of the EU summit, on being introduced to our David
ReplyDeleteI have no words for this one. Was he on the tube or did you draw him from memory?
ReplyDeleteScarily, he looks a bit like someone I know o_O I'm glad this is an online advent calendar because if I saw HIM peeking through my window I'd be terrified!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I just got mugged by looking at this.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see the tattoo to Mom on his bicep.
ReplyDeleteIs the title of your blog a reference to 'What Katy Did', by any chance?
ReplyDeleteWhen a felon's not engaged in his employment
ReplyDeleteOr maturing his felonious little plans
His capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is quite as great as any honest man's!

Looks like Alexey Sayle...
ReplyDeleteI always thought the blog title was from the "Jennings and Derbyshire" series of books-school stories written in the 50s and 60s by Anthony Buckeridge. I read them as a kid and remember in one Jennings attempts to keep a diary; he makes entries for a few days then leaves it for a while. When he sits down to write it up he can't remember what he's done in the past week so it runs: Monday 1st-Forget what did
ReplyDeleteTuesday 2nd-Forget what did Wednesday 3rd Forget what did and so on.
Just my theory.
I assumed 'Forget what did' was referring to the Phillip Larkin Poem.
ReplyDeleteAnoymous is right - it's a reference to the Larkin poem. In which he has much the same trouble with diary-keeping as Jennings!
ReplyDeleteColdhands, I thought the same thing precisely! Looks just like him from back in the "Stuff" days.
ReplyDeleteSure, he is... And he has a soft spot for kittens as well!
ReplyDeleteSome characters in 'Katy' stole a boy's diary and almost every entry was 'Forget what did'.
