Cartoons about Ailments

Weekly Cartoon Email #081

We’ve entered the season of snuffles and snorts. Encounters with spluttering humans are on the rise.

It’s not so bad if I can see them, but if they’re behind me, my imagination goes into overdrive.

Inevitably, I feel compelled to switch seats—and then make a quick trip to the department of tropical diseases, for decontamination.

Something Cool

This week, I wish to recommend: Brian Hagger (1935—2006), “a painter of urban scenes,” in London, and elsewhere.

Brian’s daughter, Rowena, runs a Twitter account that regularly posts his work, which is how I stumbled on it.

Thanks, as ever, for your eyeballs!
