Mike the Moe

Scan 1

Years ago I used to work in the public service. Nice job and really enjoyed the company of my colleagues.

When I retired I always planned to keep in touch with everyone but you never do. It’s been six years since I left work and the other day one of my friends was also “retiring” so I thought it only appropriate that I celebrate the event with a sketch of him at work. He has this enormous moustache and we all nicknamed him … Mike the Moe …

One of the things he will always be remembered by is the fact that he would say “no” to just about any suggestion about anything … hence the “no” words in red and several different languages on the paper.

We all met at one of the local pubs, had a few beers (and a few more) and then sent him on his way.
