A Betty & The Yeti reader made me a pencil holder! HOW CUTE IS THAT?!!

Being new to literary festivals. A thread. 1: Nodding like you know what other authors are talking about when they mention other famous authors and apparently well-known bookshops.

This weekend's collab comics made with the kids at Cheltenham Literature Festival!

How I just said "thanks" at the hotel breakfast bar.

Got up early to photograph the autumn leaves piled around these phone boxes. The Photo Gods were having none of it.

The Big Comic Show Off was IMMENSELY fun! @etheringtonbros.bsky.social Robin put on an excellent show! We drew some messed up stuff! Hopefully some footage emerges...

NO.

WHAT'S THIS NOW? Betty & The Yeti: Disasters of Disguise out May 2026.

Have you ever liked a backpack so much that you've bought a spare for when the perfectly fine one breaks in a few years' time?

My wife has been waxing lyrical about the colours of the leaves all day. Now I see why.

Just on our way to pick some pumpkins. x

Some Bubblegum biccies I made at work for the 30th anniversary of the characters.

Secret spot in King's Cross. We call these "our seats".

Train announcer keeps telling us that if we have any questions, we should "please speak to myself". Which as we all know, makes bugger-all sense.

I finally uncovered what the man on the ground is saying in Radiohead's video for Just that makes everyone simply give up...

Bath Time. 24 hours in town for the Bath Children's Literature Festival! #StreetPhotography #LumixGX1

Some more comics I made with the help of some chums at the Bath Children's Literature Festival!

Time for a Bath!

Right, someone in Blue has DEFINITELY farted. Pretty sure Lee and Duncan are off the hook. One love.

Monstrous milk chocolate buttons. Don't have nightmares, guys.

Hi.

Autumnal walk. #photography

"Go on! You know you want to..." is the LAZIEST copy. Can't believe we're still hearing it on adverts.

Whamageddon... except it's October and Spooky Scary Skeletons.

Drawing...

It's that time of the year again when you finish your hot drink (hot water in my case) and put the still-hot cup under your shirt to keep yourself warm for a bit.

Signed and doodled copy in Meadowhall. CAN YOU FIND IT?

I've had a comic printed in The Phoenix. Technically. And you can't take that away from me.

Some peaceful photos from today... 📷 Lumix TZ55

I really like making a big, daft comic with audience suggestions! 😅

The book festivals tour began at Holmfirth Children's Book Festival today!

Post Alone. #StreetPhotography

Think this is the biggest chilli fruit yet...

So, I dunno... charge it up and test it?

My friend sent The Jon Richardson radio show a sound clip. They liked it and asked him to also record a voice note with a rubbish script they'd written. He said he'd rather not as the joke at the end was poor... so they just read out their script and said it was him anyway.

I must be tired. I had a dream that I had a nap.

This Wakefield West councillor's photo about roundabouts has no business being this pleasant.

25,000 steps with a Sony Cyber-shot P10 and Olympus Stylus SH-1. Got completely soaked. Had a great time.

Look again these absolute UNITS! Naga Viper and Chocolate Bhutlah #chilli fruits.

Super Mario Bros. 40th anniversary.

I bought these because the shapes look like Kellogg's Start... the greatest cereal of all time. But it's rubbish. Rock hard and tasteless. Two stars. ⭐️⭐️

It'll all get sorted eventually, I'm sure, but my daughter's first few weeks of high school have involved a LOT of absolutely struggling to login into various online homework portals. They've just been told, "Log into Sparks. It's on there. Byeee!" But the logins don't work and we're just here like:

It's grim up here. #photography #Lumix

When I was 33, I won an acting award in a drama festival in Sheffield. The judge also remarked on my excellent costume. "We've all known a student who dresses like that!" she said. Everyone in the theatre laughed. I'd dressed myself. They were my regular clothes.

Started the Christmas food shop, lads.
