HSE Cartoon Strip

This is the cartoon strip I used to do for the Health Service Executive’s western publication Health Links, the McSlaintes and O’Tinns. You can see more of these cartoons in the publications section of my website.

Where have all my smoker friends gone?

smoking cartoonsSmoking cartoon t-shirts now available!

Yesterday I had 187 visitors, mostly from the above smoking cartoon via the original post on smoking that featured the cartoon. Most visitors were from American and Canadian universities. The visitor numbers have dropped way off today. Maybe I’ve inspired a mass quitting!

Come back, I’m worried about ye!

City Council to recycle water bottles for free.


From Galway Water Crisis:

FREE RECYCLING OF WATER BOTTLES WILL BE AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY. Just put them in clear plastic bags and put them out at your normal day/time. This was announced at the 23 April meeting of the City Council in a letter to the councillors from the manager.
Here is an excerpt of the city manager’s letter:
This issue of disposing of the bottles is primarily bulk and not weight. The best advice is to squash the bottles after removing the caps. This allows a reduction in bulk in the green bin and also allows the refuse freighter to compact the bottles more efficiently.
The following measures are being put into place:
(i) Bottles which are put in clear bags will be collected with green bins as per normal collection dates. It is important that water bottles are not mixed up with other waste to facilitate recycling. Free clear bags will be made available from the Environment Department, City Hall, on request.
(ii) A container will be available in Sandy Road Depot from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. on Saturday to facilitate this collection of plastic bottles.

Also let me give a plug to the Galway Wants Water forum, which has been set up to give Galwegians a voice in the current crisis.
