Recorded history

I forgot I would be sidetracked with Skype chatting and a community meeting today, so I have dipped into the sketchbook to pull out one of the very few sketches I did while in Blighty. Topical to a tee it is my Pappy, the regular Skype correspondent, conversing on some topic that for the moment eludes me. Perhaps it was the effect of the poor winter weather on the Chinese economy. As you might imagine, the minutes of these meetings are even more scanty than the sketched record, and when it comes to sketching I am rather less prolific than even the neolithic gentlemen in their sooty cave work. I bet they would have got a kick out of the reclining chairs and comfy fleece wear we were enjoying here.
