THE VIEW
…leiripaikkamme katoksen portailta. Maalasin tämän jossain 10 minuutissa paperille, jonka pelastin polttoon menevistä paperiroskista…
…from the steps of our camping place shelter. I painted this in about ten minutes on a paper I saved from the thrash that was about to get burned…
Tärkeä kysymys
AN IMPORTANT QUESTION
”Kati? When you’re a camp leader, do you have to be in the woods every day?” //
”…no.” ”Okay.” //
”What kind of a question was that?”
Keltainen auto
YELLOW CAR
”Hey hey hey! Was that a nice thing to do now? Why did you hit your friend?” //
”Because I saw a yellow car!” ”Yeah, if you see a yellow car you can hit the others!” //
”First off, you mustn’t and shouldn’t hit your friends…” //
”…and second, you didn’t even see a yellow car!” ”I did!” //
”There’s one on the parking lot over there!” ”Oh.” //
”Well, just go for it, then.”
Doctor Who: Valkoinen kauhu
DOCTOR WHO: THE WHITE TERROR
Leirisaarellamme Bengtsårissa kerrotaan legendaa valkoisesta tennissukasta, joka syö leiriläisiä… Mutta nyt sukka on kohdannut voittajansa – hullun miehen laatikossa!
Juhannuksenvietossa piirsimme Julian ja Romeon, Lumihevosen ja Julian isoveljen kanssa yhteistyösarjiksen Tohtorin seikkailuista. Kaikki tekijät myös esiintyvät sarjiksessa 😀 Ennen sarjiksen aloittamista piti tietty päättää, kuka Tohtoreista pääsi mukaan. Varoitus: sisältää David Tennantia!
There’s a legend on our camping island Bengtsår, a legend of a white tennis sock that eats campers… But now the sock has met its match – a mad man in a box!
During Midsummer I drew this comic of Doctor’s adwentures together with Julia and Romeo, Snowhorse and Julia’s Big Brother. We all also appear in the comic 😀 Before we started drawing we had to decide which Doctor got into this comic. Warning: includes David Tennant!
”I thought I stopped you already!” //
”Well, I’ve worked in worse places than this…” //
”Ha! The trail is still fresh!” //
”Who is that?” ”Why is he wearing a suit?” //
”Yes, uhm… Hello. Have you by any chance happened to see a… a white tennis sock?”
”RUN!” //
”No, no, no, no!” //
”Don’t you even dream about it!” //
”Aaaaarrggh!” ”Hang in there, weird suit dude!”
”Stop it! You’re not helping!” //
”Oh no!” ”Sorry!” ”What are we going to do now?” //
”I have a secret weapon!” (Super-clean washing powder)
”It only grew bigger!”
”Does it have ANY weaknesses?” ”Yes! It hates the smell of gasoline! (Like any other sentient being…)” //
”Anyone! We need gasoline here, quickly!” ”With or without oil?” //
”Doesn’t matter, just throw it here!” ”Okay!” //
”Take this!”
”There, problem solved for a while but – ” ”Hey, you’re bleeding! You need bandaging!” //
”Luckily, we’ve taken the first aid course!” ”Take off your shirt!” ”We have Minions plasters!” ”No, stop! Eh…” //
”Hey, would you like to come and make pancakes with us?” ”I just might have the time… Can I keep my shirt on?”

”Hahaha! We’re so drunk! Hehehehee!” //
”We’ve been drinking so much! Hohohoo!” ”You can’t be drunk from drinking nothing but water, kids.” //
”It’s not water, it’s beer!” ”Yeah!” //
”Hey! You two have been ten-year old boys at some point. Could you tell me…” //
”…just what’s going on in those guys heads as they’re playing to be drunk half the day?” //
”Well… Pretty much nothing.” ”Yes.” ”That’s what I thought.”

WINTER WANDERING
I went for a skiing trip to Litokaira with some other people for a week. //
Underwear: Undershirt (silk wool), underpants (silk wool), three pairs of woolen socks //
In between: Scarf (silk wool), woolly sweater, trousers, woolen lining of boots //
Overwear: beanie, anorak, mittens, trousers, skiing boots //
Pause clothes: a second beanie, quilted jacket, quilted trousers of the British army //’
The British army trousers have zippers on both sides – they can be put on and taken off without removing yous skis! //
+ a backpack or a sledge
USING ENERGY ON A SKIING TRIP
Ski 10 kilometers in -20 degrees on forest skis and with a backpack. //
If you fall over, getting up is difficult… because you’re under level zero! ”Help!” //
In the evening shovel off 40 cm of snow… so that you can put up a tent. //
If you still have extra energy, you can always make some more firewood. //
”It’s half past five and I could already go to sleep.” ”It’s this darkness that falls at four that makes us all tired.” //
”When we go home everyone will ask, ’what did you do all those long dark evenings?’ And we’ll say, ’waited for snow to melt so that we’d have something to drink!'” ”Ha ha ha!” //
”Shall we make food now? Tofu?” ”Sure!” //
”But guess what?” ”What?” ”Or tofu is frozen solid.” //
”There it is now, a tofu in a warm bath.” ”Lucky tofu.”
”It’s nice to sleep in a tent again… Even though…” //
”…there’s no room for me to straighten my legs!” //
”Not good.” ”Nope.” //
”If I could get my feet ON THE TOP of other peoples feet…” //
”Aah.” //
”Hey you need to move your feet, they’re too close to the stove.” //
”Dang.”
(I’m sorry, this doesn’t translate.)
On that day we made a snow unicorn.
On the last day we had to ski 15 kilometers to the bus stop. We woke up at four and got going at six. It was dark. //
Finally we were there. ”We were so fast that it’s still three hours till the bus comes!” ”So what now?” //
”Hey, who’s that guy with the quad bike?” //
”Probably the owner of that farm there.” //
”Are you waiting for the bus that comes at five?” ”Yes.” ”You’re going to get cold.” //
”Here, take some firewood and make a fire under that spruce there. It’ll be nicer to wait that way.” ”Thank you so much!” //
Thanks to everyone fo the great week!

“So, there have been lots of good things in this year. Of course everything didn’t fit into this comic, and I’ve mentioned many things in previous comics.” //
“So thanks to all my friends and family members both near and far away, also you who didn’t make it into this comic! I hope you’ve had nice moments in the past year.” //
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2017! SEE YOU!
Per Impro Ad Astra
Tässä sarjiksessa tapaatte ystäväni Julian ja Romeon, joiden kanssa vedin leiriä viime kesänä. Jutun otsikko Per Impro Ad Astra (”Improvisaation kautta tähtiin”) on Romeon minulle suunnittelemän vaakunan tunnuslauseena 😀
In this comic you’ll meet my friends Julia and Romeo with whom I was leading a camp last summer. The title of this comic, Per Impro Ad Astra (”Trough improvisation to stars”) was the motto in the coat of arms that Romeo designed for me.
Once upon a camp… ”GAAAH!!” //
”I hate it when these trays always fall from the table where they’re getting dry!” //
”But it’s no surprise, actually. There’s nothing to stop them from falling!” //
”Of course… if I tried to fix it…” //
”Hammering? I’ll help you!” //
”We suffered from the same problem for years, and it took about five minutes to fix it.”
