Deniro said...: I like the line Drawing cariactures best. May I suggest a caricature of Retail reformer of the (last) week Mr Andy "100 Discount" Warrell Thompson.; 23 January 2012 at 20:05
Deniro said...: Typo 100%; 23 January 2012 at 20:06
Mark Wadsworth said...: Den, I did him ages ago.

What do mean by "line drawing"? Do you mean without the fancy shading?; 23 January 2012 at 20:16
A K Haart said...: Harry has a strange face, not easy to capture I would think, but this is good - knew him immediately.; 23 January 2012 at 20:19
Deniro said...: Yes like "the three wise men persons"; 23 January 2012 at 20:20
Mark Wadsworth said...: AKH, ta, several of the older football managers have quite impressive faces, really battle scarred in the way that even few politicians manage.

Den, ta for clarification.; 23 January 2012 at 20:58
Deniro said...: It is ironic that Thomson went Ballistic on the Supermarket sweep as he comes across as quite bright on economic matters. In 2001 he propoosed a campaign for a volantary ban on tipping in restaurants knowing it would increase the income to restauranters and waiting staff alike.; 23 January 2012 at 21:58
Ross said...: Off topic- but I notice when you change your blog description.; 23 January 2012 at 22:02
Mark Wadsworth said...: Den, simple rule in restaurants, never add a tip to the bill on the machine, just chuck a few quid on the tray for the waiter/waitress to pocket.

R, ta. It amazes me that some people never change them.; 23 January 2012 at 22:12
Rob said...: Harry's finesse was to name the account after his dog. Tremendous.

Still, I think there'll be a fucking tremendous hatefest against him in the 'liberal' press - football, cockney, alleged tax evader - public enemy #1.; 24 January 2012 at 09:53
Mark Wadsworth said...: Rob, that's why I'm leading the backlash against the inevitable backlash and making him "Tax Reform Campaigner Of The Week", he illustrates how bloody difficult it is to tax incomes and how high earners can avoid it, i.e. it is pointless. As ever, LVT would fix all this.; 24 January 2012 at 09:56
