I’m a big fan of Hugo’s historic look. He’s made the most of that failing cockatoo crest. Derek also looks fab.

Many tiny triumphs on this page. Panel 2 from Polly’s perspective, and the discovery of the landline, both high points that still please me.

Here’s the page I had to add a bit to in order to make it into a real page. All-new drawings that hopefully look like the historic ones.

I apologise for any artistic or storytelling deficits in this comic vignette. I’d been out of commission for months. I did my best.
