The English Gentleman

the english gentleman

I saw this picture years ago in a backpacker in Rhodes. It’s one of those things that just astound me. I mean who the hell thinks of these things. And not only that, They get a chimp and a woman to pose with it, photograph it, and then print a bunch of posters, and then who the hell buys it. Well the guy at the backpackers we were staying in did.

It all just leaves me bewildered.

So I painted a picture of it.

Of course I did.

From memory. It was before digital cameras, so I didn’t take photos of every single thing.

And I called it The English Gentleman.

Puppet from Prague

Puppet from Prague

We bought this puppet years ago in Prague. The story is that a father wanted his daughter to marry some rich ass hole, and she didn’t want to so she joined the nunnery. The father enraged murdered his pious daughter, who to this day continues to haunt the streets of Old Prague.

Mining the Nickel-Ass

Mining the Nickel-Ass

There was a bit of mining the nickel ass yesterday. But you don’t need to hear about my medical problems.

It’s beginning to stink.

It's beginning to stink.

How do I make my way onto the old gravy train?

This picture is based on a bit in my first novella. I’m currently working on a new edition, to print at home, as I used Blurb to print this, and it doesn’t cost that much but the postage is a killer.

Buy it HERE

So I might use this as a cover for the new edition.
