It's accessory heaven out there. Not only did I just pick up a red carnation buttonhole discarded carelessly in her majesty's wake, but I just walked past a pair of lime-green court shoes punched with decorative holes, threaded with an ornamental snake with stitching scales and sparkly eyes! So cool!
Hm-yeah, another one of those weeks that's been a bit of a week, really, so this week's strip is executed in biro and tea, and examines that weird phenomenon where people just can't (be bothered to) figure out how to fix something (or avoid breaking it) even though a moment's thought/experimentation would provide an acceptable working solution. I tried putting the light in flashing orange (as it is in real life) but it didn't look good ... orange isn't the best of colours onscreen. Speaking of which, although most of the tea is virtual, the bit spilt on the last panel is real.
P.S. That first panel is a tribute to Carol Lay.

Perhaps I'll try it someday on Things I Can't Draw.
And I do have friends who have put tea in a closed container of cold water, shaken it, and drunk it very quickly when no hot water is available.
Apparently it's bitter, but it does the job.
I mean, I assume someone must find it useful, but I can't imagine under what circumstances.
BTW, did you meet the TONTO people when you were at GRRR! ? I can't remember if they came that time. I was hyping you to Edda Strobl. They publish some good-lookin' artycomic stuff.
(TONTO *are* the Austrian couple.) I think they would greatly like an invite to CAPTION, which I was also burbling about.
