Despatch Rider Resting

So many people wear black clothing. There seemed little point in making this a colour drawing, and motorbikes and scooters are difficult to draw, especially in the hour-long slot that I do.

As always, this was drawn while listening to Gideon Coe and Mark Riley. They are very funny, and at points last night I laughed out loud. They have over the months worked out how to engage with each other with respect, which has probably been difficult because Mark Riley appears to be much more naturally extrovert. From the sound of things, he is very aware of this and pulls back to make space for Gideon Coe to interject, by which point in a typical introvert's fashion, Gideon Coe has built up a head of hilarious understated steam, and comes out with a quip which knocks Mark Riley off the pitch. 

You could even hear their producer laughing out loud in the background last night. Blame any wobbly lines on that, if you please.

Also, I have a gig on 28th May at The Water Rats supporting that Australian singer and song writer Liz Stringer, who has a new album release. Tickets here: https://www.wegottickets.com/event/610734
