and L'Escargot wins by a head!

Well done Debs, this certainly is a winner!

just love this one Debs, your snails are better than my snails.

I also had a similiar idea about a race but you've beaten me to it and probably done it more justice - so - like you - I think I will also retire for a while.

Love the pun - great drawing and super snails.

Thank you Ros, Karyl, Michael and Thea for such nice comments, it was fun while it lasted!! p.s. Michael and Karyl didn't realise what hard work cartooning was! lol

Very good Debs! I think also that it's time to have a little break but we'll come back later.

Thanks Satu, will have another go soon I'm sure, won't be able to resist!

This is fun Debs, keep at it!!

Great fun, Debs! These litte doodlings are keeping me entertained. Hope ecverybody returns to this soon!

Thanks very much Carole and Seok was fun doing something different!

Thanks Debs for your comment on my David Frost pastel portrait, glad you like it, it is shocking isn't it that after not suffering apparently from ill health for him to be suddenly struck down like that! The situation in South Africa with Nelson Mandela is getting crazier by the day, wouldn't be surprised to hear that his family are manipulating his situation to suit themselves why they go on fighting and bickering amongst themselves about who gets what from his estate, I trout it was very telling that for several days the news was that he was being released from hospital, as if to give the impression that he had suddenly made a miraculous recovery, when the reality was that although he has been taken back home it is to a home that has had an intensive care unit installed in it, who knows when the end will be be announced for him, it would have been expected to have happened by now, with all the chaos his family are making whenever they are featured in the news I keep getting the impression that it is a good thing for him that he is probably unconscious all the time so that he will be hopefully unaware of what is happening around him in the family, anyway, thanks again Debs and bye for now xx
