Going Somewhere Nice?


As seen in the Spectator this week.

The Surreal McCoy's Big Board at Shrewsbury International cartoon Festival

Drawing live in the town square the cartoonists were at various times joined or assaulted by Queen Victoria and the cast of Alice in Wonderland which left them wondering exactly what kind of breakfast mushrooms were on offer at the hotel that morning.
