Unfortunately Eskom appears to be back with its nonsense of unannounced power cuts for 12 hours at a time so there was only enough electrical oomph in our inverter for one cartoon. The weekly caption contest will be run on Monday next week instead. In the meantime, if any of you come across any amusing, funny photos you think would be good candidates for the caption contests please email them through to pratish (at) wonkie (dot) com.

In other news, the Wonkie team has been busy shipping off t-shirts to a couple of dozen readers, commentators, and runners-up to the April 30 win an mp3 player contest. Believe it or not, the winner and the alternative winner for the mp3 player have not responded to their emails as yet so we’ll be picking another name from the pot this weekend. We’ve been a little slack announcing the names of t-shirt winners on the site but we’ll hopefully get to it over the weekend.

In still other news, Wonkie will be reducing its cartoon output slightly over the next 2 weeks because of the recession (haha). Well, more because we’re upgrading the site to cater for the larger number of readers – we’re up to over 3,500 regular daily cartoon readers now – thank you all, please help us spread the word and email Wonkie CartOOns to your colleagues at will!

We also have an official Wonkie CartOOns page on Facebook now so please do join us there by becoming a fan:
