Shopping list

Shopping List cartoonI bumped into Ellis Nadler's blog by accident, and a happy one too. I'm a great believer in the power serendipity and Ellis' often deceptively-simple sketches are often chock-full of stray thoughts skittering off in all directions.

His recent "Shopping List" is a nice example. Here's a game for those of us with enquiring minds:
  • What on earth was Ellis planning on doing that prompted him to draw up this shopping list?
  • Did he do it?
  • And who did the cleaning up afterwards?
No prizes, just a bit of fun.

I had thought that perhaps Ellis and a bunch of leading characters from old detective stories were going to throw a surprise party for Max Carados but I couldn't work out where the false beard came in.
Sorry.

The woman always ends up doing the cleaning up.
