Janey Godley (1961-2024)

Hello everyone. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

I know its late to say this, but I had been busy....

... and not 100%.

2024 turned out to be my least productive year for .... reasons.

Regular readers would know that I usually publish a Christmas card every year. I did think about making one, but ... reasons. When I finally got around to considering making one for 2024 I found some sad news. Comedian Janey Godley had passed away, due to cancer.

Back in 2016 Janey Godley and her daughter Ashley Storrie, chaired a stand-up comedy workshop organized by the National Autistic Society Scotland. The goal of it was to get a group of autistic adult to perform a routine in the Scottish Parliament. I was one of them. It was a great time. I enjoyed every minute of it. 

I'm glad I met her (and Ashley). 

Some time ago I had an idea for an Inktober challenge to draw comedians, with Janey included on the list. I actually told Ashley (via Facebook) the idea. But it didn't happen.

Its from this dormant idea that I drew this tribute to Janey. 

Hope you like it.

Happy "I survived winter 2022" everyone

 Another year has passed. 

Recently, I've been working on a YouTube video about Teletext, so some of my time this December has been spent on this program.

So for this year's card, I made this.

It's basic, but it'll do.

Christmas Card 2016

I admit that recent events in my life kind of intervened in the making of this year's card (I'll explain in a future post). It wasn't until the night of December 22nd I finally had an idea what to do for this year's card. It is something different... a collage, instead of a drawing. Took most of today to make it. Hope you people like it....

Sorry Digimon fans..... and Genwunners.

(But at least I did something for the Pokeshippers.)
