But the great thing about Matt (and the thing which must make him so valuable to the Telegraph), is that he never misses. Every day, whatever is going on, he delivers a cartoon which always makes you smile, and often makes me laugh out loud.
I am a fan!

I merely helped a damsel in distress (i.e. found the Matt cartoon that PUCCI was seeking).Rather than take a risk that PUCCI might forget to bestow an honour upon me (I've given up hoping she might bestow her favours
) I thought a polite reminder wouldn't be inappropriate. There is a direct correlation between PUCCI's forgetfulness and her level of Bombay Sapphire consumption, and given the time of day I couldn't be sure if she had hit the bottle yet or not.Now I'm off to change my profile to 12 Muccis.

But how come you can go from 10 Muccis to 12 - you've only been award 1, not 2. Or are you cheating again

Check out the thread - Ladies and Gentlemen - I would like to Add My Welcome - post # 121.
McG - When it comes to Muccis the rule of thumb is always accept quantity over quality.

That might even pass as a HIDDY sausage. No wonder BA's in trouble.

Wow - those pictures almost make Mrs TEX277's cooking look edible in comparison!
Given the pictures of some of the food this guy was recently served in J, it's certainly true.
