My cartooning career started at Fairfax, during the setting up of the Gold Coast Weekend Herald in 1993. I was invited to illustrate letters to the editor and the points of interest section 'InTouch'. Each week was a joy for me, reading letters and snipets of information inturn selecting 3 for illustration. I try to give my reader something humourous and informative to think about. My aim is have them realise a punch line then to feel satisfied having worked it out. I integrate second and hidden meanings in my toons.     TELE WATCH; "Do we really want Pay TV? New York dwellers report they have 57 channels and nothing worth watching. South Carolina has a fish channel. For 14 hours a day the camera just films a small fish tank. When one channel dropped the program there were so many protests that another brought it back. According to hearsay it is particular popular with parents, who say there is no sex or violence."
