    Is it too late to change your Walkley nomination?

    I love the kitty in the first panel. I also look forward to the new developments in Jasper and Abigail’s relationship. Will their baby’s name be - DAMIAN??

    Classic FD.

    I’ll never be able to look at a fondue set in quite the same way again. :-)

    …and Turnbull - with clenched fist - turned to Pyne and said “and together we will rule the universe”. Which universe Turnbull was actually talking about was unclear except for one thing, there would be no utes in that fantasy world.

    What a fabulous oeuvre FD :) :) :)

    Thank God I’ve fallen out of love-many years ago-of fondue.

    PS: As a vey vocal supporter of FDOTM perhaps you could wave a paw on a tweet for me.

    You really do need reader warnings FD - although of course I should know better than to read your cartoon in the lobby of a posh hotel in India. Thank fuck I wasn’t drinking anything at the time…I just know it would have come straight out of my nose.

    As I write this, people are backing away from me slowly…they probably think it’s some sort of manifestation of swine flu.

    It was the Pyne/Turnbull panel that did it. And as for Jasper…

    It’s not what you say its how you say it. And that’s why there are no MPs or iguanas in Days of our Drearies.

    Alison, you are so spot on. The Pyne/Turnbull image that got to me. Was it Turnbull, or Pyne in drag? Puns intended. Definately (I’m tired, can’t spell at the moment) t-shirt material.

    You can get a nice picture of Iguanas from the Gosford to Sydney train via the bridge. And Gosford is close to …… Woy Woy.
