Oh, Tor this one might be favourite yet!! I didn't really know why I'd need to ever use the 'save' function on Substack but I absolutely need to be able to re-visit this page. Thanks for sharing your dad and Chilly Billy with us. Xx
I can recommend taking the leap with the glasses though - when I realised that placing any kind of details on characters (eg. eyes) was a complete stab in the dark I had to accept it was time and there's no regrets!
I totally want them, it's just the varifocals adjustment period I'm putting off - I'm excited to see properly again soon!! I too can't see the characters' eyes decently! 🤪
I now have an (ironically) burning desire to learn the earlier adventures of Chilly Billy - where was he born, what prevented him from melting, how did he come into the possession of a young boy? Were penguins involved???
Hi Tor go for the varifocals or whatever ,I've been embracing them for years even with my contact lenses. It was amazing, I was actually able to thread a needle again and do embrodiary! Love your Dad as a lad stories. Our fathers are a rich broth of story inspiration. During WW2 my father used to box in the coal merchant stables with other youths, with the horses looking on. Goodness know what the horses thought about these young men stripped to the waist biffing each other.

I can't think about it!! I can't think about Chilly Billy at all without more tears! So we will never know...
Lovely, Tor 👌 watch out for those bi-focals - I got some recently and they sure make you dizzy for the first few days!
Thanks Joe! Yes, I've heard that - think that's also why I'm putting it off - I don't care for adjustment periods, I want full comfort IMMEDIATELY!!
“When James tore up my Alice” 😢
MORE TOR AND HER FAMILY PLEASE
Ah your Ronald Searle phase? 😁👌
This one got to my heart!
Brilliant, love the dad comics... but, the "perverse nudes" stage is also most welcome!
