Gaturro

Three cats are sitting on a roof. One of them has a really long neck, so long that his head is out of frame.

"¿Viste, Ágatha?" says one cat. "Gatulongo puede estirar y estirar su cuello..."
"¿Sí?" replies the second cat. "¿Cuánto?"

The next panel shows the head of the long-necked cat poking up through the clouds, on which a bearded man with tiny little wings and a halo is sleeping, wearing a sash reading "San Pedro". Behind him, a pipe sticks out of the cloud with a valve handle attached to it.

The long-necked cat retracts its neck, bringing its head down to where the other two cats are.
"Hoy no llueve" it says.

Apologies

I've been sick, so I haven't posted anything the last few days. The comic improvements I had already queued up to post went ahead, so there's been that, but the absence of comics for the blind is not me slowing down my posting schedule or anything, I just haven't had the will to do anything other than sit at my computer watching YouTube for the last few days.

But I'm feeling better now, so it should be back to normal. :-)
