Good ones Michael.
Your cartoon reminds me of a lady in the Care Home where Joyce was, that lady always walked round with three or four hats on her head.

A brush with the law - a sweeping statement?
Too big for yer boots - they shrunk the chemist!
Break a leg - i\'m fed up with being your stand-in.
People in glass houses will vegetate.
All bark and no... OUCH!

dusk arising said:
A burger in the hand is worth two weeks sick pay
Never put off until tomorrow that which you can get someone else to do anytime
A fool and his money parted at the casino
Dont count your chickens till the waiter brings desert.
People in glass houses shouldnt throw nude parties.
I\'m enjoying your remodeling.

Angela here - A Blessed Sunday Mornin* to yer Micke me Boyo ! Thanks for Cartoon & SMOIDI !
I know a good Irish Catholic Joke about Brothels - which yer Spouse might enjoy !
Two NUNS were sayin* the Rosary outside a Masage Parlour in Dublin - when a Anglican Bishop comes out *Did yer see that Hypocrit* says Sister Mercy ! Next minute a Rabbi walks in and Sister Evangeline says *Another Critahop !* Just then their PRIEST - Father Joe - comes out smiling ! *O Mother of God says Mercy - There must be someone SICK in there - lets PRAY for Healing !*
My fave was No 3. I have a great respect for
EGGS - Prepacked FAST FOOD - just boil & serve !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela - Brian - Smokey 🧡💙🤎

I have always been a cat person but I must say I am slowly seeing the appeal of dogs.

GOOD EVENING - Uncle Mike - Love the Cartoon - Looks like a Butchers in Canibal Country !
Love the SMOIDI - my fave is 3 - which is a good Mantra for 2020 - It promised so so Much and so far has delivered so Little !
There is no Time like the PAST !
Compare the TOKIO Olympics with LONDON 2012 !
Brian*s is: *Look before You ~ Go on a Blind Date !*
Mine is: *People in Glass Houses ~ Shouldn*t use the Shower !*
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela - Brian - Smokey 🧡💙🤎

In for a penny, in for a pee
Two swallows dont make a full stomache
Many a mickle is a typo for pickle
Red sky at night shepherds camp fire is out of control.

Aha, good to see you are prepared for power cuts and storing firewood in novel ways. Looking forward to those charcoal pieces. (jeez i hope he realises i\'m joking... am i going too far?)
An apple a day keeps other makes of computer at bay.
Too many cooks spoil for a fight.
A rolling stone gathers crowds.
Enjoyed yours, thought i\'d throw a few back atcha.

Four good ones Michael but i would have thought that in your hands a charcoal stick is mightier than the pen, it certainly is in my daughters hands, she has drawn some amazing images with charcoal, one of which always looks over me as i write my words. (In fact there may be a poem there about that picture).

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
GOOD MORNING UNCLE MIKE ~ Brian Here ~ We know where you Live and Im sending the BIG CATZ round to make a meal of all your DOGGIES ! Dogs apart from being noisy - odourous - obtrusive & needing Walkies are so heterogenous ! Different breeds - shapes & sizes ! If you*ve had a LAB and then you get a SCOTTIE you have to learn a new language & and a new routine ! With CATS - One Size & Shape fits all. When you get a New CAT all the skills you learned with your Old CAT are transferable ! Smokey & I bonded in hours because Mum had always had CATS. Older Friends of ours (80+) have had over 20 cats in 60 years and each one has bonded (and taken over the House !) in hours ! For Angel & I SMOKEY changed our House into a Home in a DAY ~ A Dog would have wrecked it in a day ~ AMEN !
Please check our FUSION on CITIES
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angel - Brian & Smokey ! ! !

Oh lol, good write and pic M.
We have new-ish cats on the block, as well as existing ones. They make a fuss and visit for food from us!
I\'m sure I saw a tortoise-shell like dachshund recently - unusual. Used to call them dash hounds.
Miss Berles got a dog?

Cartoon - A great one-liner.
Poem - Has two identical ends, just like the stick..almost. If you remove an \"i\" from the last stanza, and someone says, \"There\'s an \"i\" missing.\' you can say you poked it out with your stick. Just a thought.
Great art, great poem. Lots of fun. - Phil A.

I was always taught to avoid the sharp end .. but when push comes to a shove, or where loved ones are concerned .. that approach kind of goes out of the window ..
the same principle applies where justice is concerned, or the under dog is being trodden on ...
I think in that kind of situation, it is hard not to grab hold, even if it is the pointy end offered ...
The trick is .. not being afraid to give a good shove if necessary .. oh\' n be prepared to drop and run like hell ... after thoroughly washing your hands in the appropriate strength disinfectant as stated in the manual of personal hygiene and stick management ....
Now then.. having got the stick thing off me chest .. I think it only fair to say that your artwork sir and indeed your sense of humour/fun are second to none ..
