It's good to see that the years have not dimmed Lawrence Heath's wit, nor his drawing and design skills, nor his ability to get up the noses of people who persist in seeing themselves as the objects of his humour. Sure, we can all recognize the Borfolk characters, if not in our own folk club, then in the one down the road or across the county.

But taking personal umbrage seems to be carrying a "dislike" response a bit far. If you see yourself in one of LH's caricatures (and are offended by what you see), perhaps you should look for the characteristics in your own make-up that produced that sense of recognition. It can be a painful realisation that "There's many a true word spoken in jest." If LH accidentally touched a nerve, it's no reason to jump down his throat.

Anyway, back to the positive - I couldn't find the page where you can order the Frank Ingnobody badges, T-shirts, beer-mats, bumper-stickers, guitar-case stickers, posters, banners etc, etc
And can't wait for the "missing" links.
