I used to help out with DoodleBug comic many moons ago, and Royston Robertson was the main cartoonist involved with it. Oh what fun we had, traipsing around Newcastle with boxes of comics, facing up to the North Eastern wind and rain. Since then, as l have stewed in my own piss and vinegar, he has gone on to be a successful cartoonist with a book out. Am l bitter? YYYEEESSSSS!!!!!!, but it is still good to see someone from Catterick doing well and following their muse. His book can be purchased by clicking onto my Amazon link, or at the Online Shop. A bargain at £5.99 plus £1 postage (and no, l am not receiving any royalties from it).

Thanks for the plug, Jamie :) Saw it a while back, thanks to Google Alerts, but forgot to comment. Have been popping into the blog on occasion. Good stuff. I see you are still a man of many enthusiasms, I don't know how you find the time! Hope you're well (judging by the blog you are!) --Royston.
Cheers Royston, all is well and it's good to hear from you. Funnily enough, I've just done another piece with some Doodle Bug scans today. Spooky!
