Bad Machinery by John Allison for February 13, 2023

Cats need to knead!

Oui. It’s good for when we’re in the Bastille. Just ask Papillon.

Cowboy Boots.

Stay safe and healthy my friends.

Yes, it’s nice to know that Tv’s Mr. Gravy is fine now. BUT WHAT ABOUT SIMON???

Yes, Jack. It was a man’s manly mystery. So, manly that Colin and Julian slunk off in the middle of the night, never to be seen again. On the other hand, Linton and Jack both brought their A game to this case. So, it was a boyish mystery, I suppose.

Monoprix is a renowned French supermarket chain in Europe whose headquarter is based near Paris.

So popular that they sell fan t-shirts!

I have to point out that 3/5ths of the team on this “MAN’S mystery” were women. 4/7ths if you include the ghost and the car.

Mr. Gravy won’t appear in the published comics again, but he does show up in the apocryphal storyine “The Great Unboxing”, looking none the worse for wear.

Sonny’s a nice guy. Even random cats like him.

You know, I’d completely forgotten that Sonny was abroad for this whole mystery? Oops.

Salade Nicoise.

Why is it that cats who’ve never been declawed love to sit on your lap and dig them into your legs?

Prrrrrrrrrrr, thump thump, jig jig, knead knead…

‘knead, knead’ making biscuits!
