Bob and Alf


A few years ago I thought I'd have a go at drawing a cartoon strip about the adventures of two young lads Bob and Alf. After doing about twenty drawings I realised it was too much work and put the idea to one side. Tonight I was looking through some old files and found them. I thought I'd post a few of them over the next few weeks ...here's the first...!!!!!
