Monty by Jim Meddick for October 23, 2023

This is why you got to love Monty. The intellectual creativity Meddick puts in to revive unusual but perfectly fitting language like dishevelled pasty sallow portico

THAT’S why I couldn’t get to sleep in the east portico last night !!!

I slept in my clothes and didn’t comb my hair this morning. Hard to maintain appearances until sundown.

Such hallow thoughts.

Jarvis comes by his “costume” naturally.

Well, the East Portico is three miles long….

I want Jarvis for a gentleman’s gentleman,

Jarvis needs to delegate the rest of that task, because it looks like there are more pumpkin lights to string.

I think Jarvis looks similar to Lurch.

Pumpkin Spice. The longest lasting and most famous of the Spice Girls.

Go ahead Jarvis. Take what’s left of that string of lights and finish stringing him…uh, them up.

The little Dickins should go as himself! Who wears a sailor costume anymore?

Poor Jarvis.

Being that tired and up on a ladder is not a good combo. :)

I thought Jarvis had 2 black eyes!!

Lurch along back to bed Jarvis.

Poor Jarvis.
