  And what will you feed me in the Lion City? What magic will you weave over me? How will you wrap Courage around my heart? Are you the Great Wiz­ard Oz or Mer­lin or Mer­lion? LOL

  NB. The Mer­lion joke will, of course, only be under­stood by folks famil­iar with the Sin­ga­porean mascot…

  Maybe chilli crab might do some good in restor­ing the vigour?
  No magic is needed.

  Food will do you good. It’s all nat­ural and no hokey pokey.

  that’s a good one. Mer­lin and Mer­lion. LOL

  The cow­ardly lion from the Wiz­ard of Oz was always look­ing for Courage. When he found it he shouted it from one end of Oz to the next… erm.. you need to get up on high ground and shout .. “i will, i can, i shall !!!” .. lol… can?!

  Kenny — I thought it was your own draw­ing. I’m pretty sure you’d be a pretty good illus­tra­tion … that’ll get you going with courage!

  Sure love that illus­tra­tion. Some­thing sim­i­lar I saw in a Ger­man children’s book is that of a scaredy St Bernard whose coura­geous friend is a mouse.

  How is your car­toon­ing and illus­trat­ing, Kenny? I want to write about the adven­tures of Ice Mouse and Small Duck.

  The adven­tures of Ice Mouse and Small Duck? I’ve to con­fess I’ve never heard of this brave pair. I’m pro­lly bet­ter at illus­trat­ing than car­toon­ing though I’m game to try new things.

  My favourite illus­tra­tor is Edward Gorey… Read any of his stuff (He’s a writer too.)

  Kenny,

  Don’t worry. What­ever you wish to do, just do it. There’s no need to think too much. All you need is courage and believe in your­self. All the best to you…

  I just ordered two books by E Gorey from Book Depos­i­tory (free deliv­ery to CH). Nice illus­tra­tions, rem­i­nis­cent of Quentin Blake, one of my fav illus­tra­tors.
  Of course, you haven’t heard of Ice Mouse and Small Duck. My O.H. and I cre­ated them. Well, the real Small Duck you’ve seen in one of my old posts last year. ice Mouse is the one we blame for things that go miss­ing in the fridge!

  Ah it’s meant to be! Fancy me men­tion­ing Mr. Gorey and your hav­ing just ordered two of his books. I adore Mr. Blake too. I love the idea of the Ice Mouse being respon­si­ble for Miss­ing Things From the Fridge!
