Blimey! Revived


In case you didn't already know, I've decided to revive my Blimey! blog over at http://lewstringer.blogspot.co.uk/

 I'll still be keeping the blog you're looking at now for all the news of my own artwork and strips but Blimey! is where you'll find items about British comics of the past, present, and future from Ally Sloper to Action, Valiant to Viz, Film Fun to Fantastic, or any number of comics and creators from the vast history of UK titles.

 I started the Blimey! blog in 2006 and ran it regularly until New Year's Eve 2012 (with one epilogue in March of this year). I won't be updating it as often as I used to, but it'd be good if you could spare the time to drop by. If you've never visited before (or not very often) there are over 1,000 different posts about various UK comics that might interest you. 

 Anyway, as I said, this blog will still be regularly updated, and Blimey will be updated as time allows, so I hope you'll bookmark both. Just call me Lew 'Two Blogs' Stringer from now on.

      Arthur Two Sheds? No idea what that's about.

      You know what though, the name "Two Blogs" does remind me of a couple of celebs. Richard "Twice Nightly" Whitely - he earned the nickname for doing Countdown and Yorkshire TV's local news programme Calendar five nights a week in the 1980s and 1990s. And John "Two Jags" Prescott, the former Deputy Prime Minister. :)

      Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson was a character in an episode of Monty Python, James. As anon correctly presumes, it was what inspired my 'Two Blogs' comment. :-)
