The Sunshine Room

We’ve all had jobs we hate, but few of us actually cross the line of taking a firearm into the workplace. I drew this in February, when news broke that professional halfwit, Ashley Cole, had accidentally shot an intern at the Chelsea training ground.

I have to admit a certain level of sympathy for Cole here. Not only does he have to work with John Terry four days a week, he also has to cope with being Ashley Cole seven days a week. I don’t know how stable my behaviour would be in similar circumstances.

This was the first cartoon I’d drawn after a lengthy sabbatical. Eagle-eyed readers will notice that I can’t draw John Terry.

I’ve calmed down a bit since I drew this cartoon  My mood has changed from righteous indignation to morbid curiosity.

Admitedly, this cartoon will have fairly limited appeal, as it requires some understanding of the local geography of Swindon and a knowledge of what the board members of Swindon Town look like (take it from me, these caricatures are 100% accurate and in no way did I just take a wild guess at their appearance and in the hope that no-one does a google image search, oh no).

This cartoon isn’t really about Paul Gascoigne; it’s more about his agent. In July 2010, news broke that Gascoigne had offered to provide help to his fugitive friend, Raoul Moat. When this news reached Gascoigne’s agent, Kenny Shepherd, he reacted with candid surprise.

In April 2010, Puff Daddy was reportedly interested in buying Crystal Palace. Sadly, the takeover never took place, but I imagine this is how negotiations went down.

Something from a few years ago to start with. It’s a shame Peter Kenyon left Chelsea, as there was comedy potential in his subservient relationship with Roman Abramovich. You’ll note from this cartoon that I’m unfamilair with the internal mechanisms of yachts.

If you click on the comic, it’ll appear in a new window, where you can use the magnifying glass thing to spot all my mistakes. What am I saying; ya’ll know how to use computers.
