CoffeeHousers’ Wall, Boxing Day – 1 January

Welcome to the latest CoffeeHousers’ Wall. For those who haven’t come across the Wall before, it’s a post we put up each Monday, on which — providing your writing isn’t libellous, crammed with swearing, or offensive to common decency — you’ll be able to say whatever you like in the comments section.

There is no topic, so there’s no need to stay ‘on topic’, which means you’ll be able to debate with each other more freely and extensively. There’s also no constraint on the length of what you write — so, in effect, you can become Coffee House bloggers. Anything’s fair game, from political stories in your local paper, to chat about the latest football results.

But, more than anything, we want this Wall to become a means of better communication between the Coffee House team and you, the readers. If you want us to write on anything in particular, add a comment to the Wall. If you want to ask us any questions, add a comment to the Wall. If you have any thoughts about this feature, add a comment to the Wall. The Coffee House team will do its best to get involved in the conversations that you start.

To give the wall a splash of colour, you can even send your photos and videos in to phoskin @ spectator.co.uk and we’ll select the best to put at the top of the post. Any pictures of politicians doing the constituency rounds? Any videos of interesting debates? Do send them in.

Here, to help keep the conversation flowing, is a link to last week’s Wall.

A GRAVE ANNOUNCEMENT

Here’s a great piece of art by and from CoffeeHouser Jeremy. It’s of the character Doctor Graves, from The Many Ghosts of Doctor Graves, who is described in a bit more detail under Jeremy’s picture:

From Wikipedia:

‘The Many Ghosts of Doctor Graves was an American supernatural-anthology comic book published by Charlton Comics and best known as a showcase for the popular writer-artist Steve Ditko, the co-creator of Marvel Comics’ Spider-Man. The eponymous Dr. M. T. Graves was a fictional character who hosted the stories in each issue of this title, and very occasionally took part in a tale.’
