There are a few different Alice pop ups..
This one's pretty amazing. Excuse the lame music..





and some other versions of Jack & The Beanstalk covers, this one has a wicked cover.


This one's also good.Then there are some really tacky ones that just look well cheap, like this one for example

Stage 1 of my journey (4:30-5:27AM Camberwell - Euston) nailed after an all-nighter, but i only just made the train. This is me looking smug and gruesome after gettin away with my recently expired railcard!


Dole boy.. (of Dole boy and Rodney, the punx in the Woe trip and dude trip strips)
First attempt at a spread strip. This one's 4 pages and should ring a bell with anyone who's bought a round on a night in central or east before.. I did this on the 8 hour long ting ferry from Birkenhead to Belfast.

Dole boy, Rodney and Wasteman Ol in...

Saint Crimson Ghost sketch..

Another spread strip, this time done in Sandino's bar on my last day in Derry.
