Ah, there is where strip TT varies from real-life TT. Real-life TT would have been a gentleman, said "ladies first" and send OSP, Paula, LittleSue or M Kid down there instead

Real-life TT would have been a gentleman, said "ladies first" "I'm right behind you..." Thinks: "...using you as a shield." |

That's why the instalment is called 'Loyalty" and not 'Loyalty-ty'. |

Don't worry, TT, Paula will drop you a Welsh street sign and you can use it to climb out. (oh, dear, Paula, that's a big one. Careful not to drop it on his head). . .  Cockatoo? What Cockatoo? I don't see a Cockatoo! |

Interesting to see the discussion about dropping street signs and ropes down the shaft. My depiction of the spring-loaded stone slab that seals off the shaft in episode 1125 was obviously too obscure. Maybe I should refrain from drawing comic strips... Instead, here is the newest installment! Episode 1129 |

Instead, here is the newest installment! Episode 1129 Huggy, as usual, your comic strip drawing skills are great. I got that the shaft was sealed off by the stone slab. But Paula always sharpens her Welsh Street Signs. Stone blunts scissors, but it has no chance against one of Paula's Welsh Street Signs, which would slice straight through the stone with no problem. However, both Boaty and myself would then have not only a very sharp Welsh Street Sign but also a stone slab falling in our direction. And Elf & Safety might have something to say about that PS Love the latest Red Dwarf obligatory reference, including the title Vote Og.

Not for the bird!  I could have written a heart-wrenching strip about the bird trying to feed its chicks. Then people would probably think it sad if the bird didn't catch the worm and the cute little birdies have to stay hungry. |

I want to know if it ate Wormdo's briefcase. That would actually make for an exciting spin-off series where it turns out that the late worm was a worm government official, going to work with a briefcase full of important and highly secret papers. Now special agent James Wormdo has to find the missing briefcase before the blackbird agents get their beaks on it... |
