In further goat-related news, this is the first Vibrating Bum Faced Goats strip, from 1992.

#Viz45 When the history of British comedy is written Viz will straddle this last half-century like the Colossus of Rhodes. So good I treasure original artwork by Viz maestro @DHBJones, which hangs pride of place in my taxidermy room.
Happy 45th anniversary to @vizcomic launched on this day in 1979. Here's the cover to that first edition.
God grant me the serenity to not bother watching any of the election after all because there's fuck all I can do about it either way and to just watch an old episode of Midsomer Murders instead and then go to bed
Next time the Prime Minister goes abroad, I wonder if he'd mind hiding ten packs of Golden Virginia in his luggage for me? I'd give him a couple of quid per pack over the cost price, and that money could go straight where it's most needed.
Forgot to say that the new issue of Viz is in the shops, and there's pontifical shenanigans with Pope Francis
I did a 2 page comic strip and a bunch of illustrations for the new issue of @The_Fence_Mag which is on sale... waitforitwaitforit... NOW

There's nothing I enjoy more in life than giving @DHBJones the stupidest idea we can think of and watching him spin fried gold.
In this case, anachronistic flatshare antics with PLINY & SUSANNAH holding up the back pages of The Fence #21.

Another McLachlan cartoon from Private Eye. Always liked the understated amusement of the policeman in the first picture.

Very sad news that the great Ed McLachlan has died. A brilliant, inspirational cartoonist who never failed to make you laugh. And very kind to up and coming artists. I absolutely loved his work! This was his own favourite cartoon, from @PrivateEyeNews
This is very sad news. Top-tier gag cartoonist, and his drawings always gave great pleasure.

Just seen the news that Humphrey Smith has decided to retire as head of the Sam Smith's pub chain. On a completely unrelated matter issue 339 of Viz, in which the Real Ale Twats visit their local "Sydney Smithers" pub, should still be available in the shops.
1981 - that's 43 years ago. 43 years before that, it was 1938 and Neville Chamberlain was holding in his hand a piece of paper signed by Herr Hitler. And 43 years before THAT, King Henry VIII was abolishing the monasteries. Makes u think
