I look behind me, what do I see? A pair of golden wings seem to be attached to me.

Does this mean the strip will only be in black & white from now on?

Or just white? Uploading just blank pages would certainly reduce the amount of work for the strip! Why didn't I think of that before? On the other hand, I fear that interest in the strip would decline very fast... Instead of black and white or just plain white, I opted for a little more pink: Episode 1139 |

Even though I should have known what was coming, it still made me laugh. I think the mention of pink made me imagine the story was going to be about Sue's Pringles. |

Maybe Sue's pringles will get a storyline to themselves in the future. Meanwhile, poor Huggy is in the stickiest situation since Sticky the Stick Insect got stuck on a sticky bun (obligatory Blackadder reference). Vote Og.

For those who don't know, the trope of TT, Paula, and the Welsh street sign began on the streets of Harlech, when he made a disparaging remark about Del Grant, turned to grin at Paula, and then walked right into a (Welsh) street sign, leaving, and I kid you not, a Federation shaped scar on his forehead.

Sorry about the Welsh street sign, Huggie, it has a mind of its own. But mostly, it would rather just bonk TT on the noggin.

leaving, and I kid you not, a Federation shaped scar on his forehead. It's true! And here's the evidence, not at all faked and directly from the Federation Ministry of Truth and Not Propaganda.  |

Suddenly a bowling ball comes rolling through the bottom of the strip and breaks the component. "Oh no! Gutter ball!" |

That looks so weird after over 1140 episodes of us as 2D! Love it, though, Joe - how we look the same, but different, in 3D!

Wow, the 3D effect looks great! Maybe I can switch to 3D with episode 2000! (Actually, the strip is now planned up to episode 1250, to be published on 2nd January 2027 [allowing for a few days off in October when I will be away].) But today, we are back to boring old 2D: Episode 1146 |
