This has been through a couple of iterations. The version here is just the way it originally popped into my head. I then added to it. There's always a worry that someone might not get it, so you add things to try and clarify. But then it can get messy and unwieldy. I was much happier with the simple version and it makes me laugh. The extra bits are in the additional text, though to be honest they probably add confusion rather than clarification. They were supposed to clarify that Maureen is actually the needy one, but like some needy people, she doesn't like having to listen to or help others and thinks they're the ones being needy if they try to get a word in edgeways.
Jigsaw - online
What's more fun than a cuddle with a woolly critter?
Try completing a puzzle online - they have just the right number of pieces for a coffee-break challenge and you gradually reveal the cartoon.
If you like Yvonne then the good news is that you can support the author, buy the image to keep and avail yourself of some really useful kit, such as mugs, bags, coasters, mouse mats, postcards, greetings cards, even posters and prints.
