The Archbishop on women priests

The great thing about having blog like this is that if you have nothing intelligent to say you can draw something nonsensical without causing a frown in the office of some client or editor somewhere. I had to come up with something though because Maggi told me to. Today’s Anglican story is a bit of a non-story really, hence the bit of a non-cartoon. Lots of people woke up this morning to the news that the Archbishop of Canterbury might have doubts over women priests and that he might be reconsidering the issue. It turned out that it was all a bit of a kerfuffle over nothing as these links explain. Don’t read all of them though – it’ll take you for ever.

    I’m sure enough has been said about the news story or lack of one, so i’ll just say that I think your drawing of the Archbishop is very good, Dave. Eyebrows are beautifully bushy.

    Another great cartoon Dave, any chance I could put it on my blog? Ruth

    Y’know, I just had an interesting thought.

    The archbish is quite a visual character – wouldn’t it be interesting if it was all a disguise? At night he takes off his beard, puts on his thick hairy wig and becomes someone entirely different.

    Maybe he isn’t even welsh and uses a speech-writer. Maybe there isn’t just one person, but a collective of method actors who take it in turns.

    How scary would that be?
