Drawing: Sitting by the toilet with Irial

Returning from the 2011 Shrewsbury Cartoon festival I had the traditional experience of a crammed Virgin Cross Country train, so much so that the floor outside first class and next to the toilet was a prime seating opportunity. I drew this while I was there.

Sir Richard, if you are reading, sort it out please.

The fringe benefit was meeting some lovely people including Irial and three marvellous mature ladies of a militant nature who insisted on keeping the door open to first class so we could at least breath first class air.

There are suggestions the police will be given new powers to demand the removal of facial covering following the disorder in London after the march on March 26th 2011. Extra powers to regulate social media – or conversation and sharing – may also be developed.
