WristScan

With a distinct nod to the events of the last week, lets tip our hats to the wonder of cartoonists and how they express humour and freedom. Feel free to post your favourite cartoonists and whatever watch happens to be on your wrist. On my wrist right now ...  

I present to you fine gentlemen two cartoons , one by Bohdan Butenko and the second one from New Yorker titlet "the last garment". And of course my beloved Sinn getting ready to go on my wrist! Outdoors wristshot to follow. Regards Edward ...  

Nice looking Sinn there.....
