This week's strip is four unconnected pages from my increasingly-battered looking Muji bogpaper A6 sketchpad. They used to do an A7 one, but I got bored of waiting for it to come back, cracked and bought the A6. Glad I did, as I'm increasingly drawn to the practicality of sketchpad that's big enough to get an almost-story onto a page while being small enough for discreet use during meetings and bus journeys. The panel shown here is a detail from she cloned herself a friendly pterodaustro, which (apart from the four-page strip about godzilla) is my favourite in the book. When I showed it to him, timscience asked me if there was such a dinosaur as a pterodaustro. Ha! Do not doubt my dinosaur knowledge! It's usually potrayed bright pink because its jaws look primed for shrimp.

Speaking of timscience, he's asked me to plug the £4.99 Headbangers and Mash compilation, the first release from his college label, by that year's music + music tech students -- some memorably weird stuff, including rock samba, hip-hop shamisen, and gay rappers rocking out a memorable nu-rock masterpiece. In Polar Bear from monday, in his bag from tuesday (for those likely to be running into him).
