Hi Boots
I'm going to try to do a graphic for your series by tomorrow 
. The brief I have is "a haggard dog - something like Henry the Bloodhound (Clement Freud's dog) standing on hind legs wearing army boots and a waiters pinnie or butlers uniform"
Is there anything else I should try to include?
Did you want a cartoon style thing or something more realistic?

Grrrrrrrrrr. not nice.
Ok Boots I think should be Wellington variety (military a tad posh for useless hound). Boots is actually a Kipling character and was a Scotty...not relevant...my favourite dogs are great Danes and mongrels. Not sure about the pinny but a mac a la columbo or shoestring might be fun....I thought I did the writing and you did the drawing!!!
Take care

OK, a cartoon, a mac, welly boots, no pinny. Shazz suggested a tray of tea cups but that doesn't seem to fit with the mac. What would you like the bloodhound to be holding? What should be in the background? Shazz suggests a doghouse.

A bone? as in won't stop shaking it. Alternatively a lead throttling it? Doghouse kennel is lovely.
Thank you
and I love the spotty yellow fish!
Take care
Boots.
ps it could be a glass of wine...have been known to drink a little but only on days with a 'y' in them!

likewise following your work! Have put a link on boot's space to your archives. Don't suppose you fancy working on any children's illustrations for a non h2g2 project? All you can expect is lots of rejection slip thuds! If you may be I will send secret url!
Take care
