Sweet 'n' Sour

The first entry in last week's global cartoon competition never went down too well, I'm afraid, garnering few overall votes----I honestly thought it was going to be finished at the starting block. However the final decision of 'what stays in' is down to the professional cartoonists who run the competition, and they have decided to keep the strip in for the meantime [perhaps they reckon it decides a further chance ?]. So it's in the current running [Week 2, at the time of writing-------here's hoping that things pick up somewhat].
