The buzz

More banging on

(Ron's back - see his first Banging on)
Har— Once again, tantalizing drawings give rise to more kvestyons this end:
• should we keep an eye out for the robber trio? And
• in Series2-Episode3, was Accountant Mugger #3, deliberately misappropriating with his ledger entries? I think I get the idea but...weird. Also
• some concern here about bad consequences when #1 and #2 discover that #3 has purloined the bloody-great watch! (No honor among thieves message my guess.) And
• why the heck would this shady trio go to all the trouble of an on-the-spot inventory in the first place! It just doesn't add up (ha, ha).
—None of these are my words, bud, but let me push on
• is there an inscription inside this watch? A photo? And
• any news on Miss Raspberry Jacket!
Move it along, my friend, Brooklyn is tapping its foot.

    Ron— Thanks for a laugh. I'll own to a few liberties re., the troika of villany.
1. They are not rational, mate, I was in a silly mood when I drew them. Then
2. drawing the fob watch in the same spirit, I thought it would be really-really stupid to make it megagantic. At least, it made me smirk redrawing it bigger and bigger: imagine lugging it around all day under your shirt, wresting it out for a time-check or it interrupting a cucumber-sandwich tea (jasmin, lapsang souchong...) while cycling through Big Ben chimes! How could the freekin' first two have missed this item!! Also
3. Yes, the very idea of these loons actually writing up an on-the-spot inventory...but
4. for serious readers hoping for a serious thread to emerge, the serious plot continues hereafter and Ms Rasberry will figure therein. Stay tuned amigo, at least
we're having fun.
