It has this cartoon (but white on black background) on the front and the word ‘STAFF’ on the back. When worn by a someone like me it looks something like…
How people in certain areas can win my book
A note for readers in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. You can win one of my books by entering the competition in ‘the Door’, which is the diocesan magazine. Failing that it isn’t too late to enter for the Olympics (see lead story, above) if you still have anything in reserve to ‘raise your game’ following…

The CartoonChurch office World Cup sweepstake
I’ve decided, for my own idle amusement, to run a World Cup sweepstake here in my office in the heart of Industrial Basildon. Unfortunately, as I am the only one who works here it has the potential to be less than enthralling. As things stand I will have an approximate 100% chance of winning, which…

Small widget competition answer
I’ve really enjoyed all of your competition answers – thank you. Kennedy Fraser got the answer right, although most of you were winners too with your entertaining answers. Here’s the widget in its final resting place: The widget was the piece I was missing to make the gears work on one of my bicycles, hence…
Small mystery widget competition without prizes
This tiny widget arrived in the post today and I was overjoyed. I bought it on eBay for £1.49. It is a bit smaller than the photograph. A small and reasonably pointless competition: You just have to explain in the comments (1) what my small widget is and (2) why I was overjoyed. There are…

Small competition with partially out of date calendars as prizes
Canterbury Press have the 2009 Dave Walker calendar on sale for £3. Owing to incompetence I have a small stock of them left over myself, so here’s a little competition: I’ll send 5 2009 calendars to the 5 people who post the best ideas for next year’s (2010) calendar in the comments section of this…

The Motorboat Museum
I’m off out for the whole day today so no time for blogging. In the meantime why not take a virtual visit to one of our local Essex attractions, the Motorboat Museum, in particular the games page. I tried the ‘boat race’ and ‘trimming a boat’ contests, the former usually ending in disaster for me….
Frisbee cartoon
James, the winner of the evangelistic frisbee competition requested this cartoon. He really did let me off easily by going for one of my simplest drawings, and a circular one at that. If he had gone for something like the church kitchen or ‘bottled up‘ I don’t quite know how it would have turned out….
