Merry Christmas - with Budgens!

A recent spot on ebay...The seller described it thus...

This is for issue 3 of "Christmas with the Buds", a 12-page
promotional comic for Budgens supermarket from Christmas 1986.

It contains a 4 page comic strip by Sid Burgon as well as jokes
and promotions.

Page 2 is an advert for Doctor Who Adventure Comics, given
away with Golden Wonder crisp multipacks. The ad features a
few comic frames featuring the Tardis, a Cyberman and the sixth
doctor, Colin Baker.

Never seen this before so I'd love to know if anyone has examples of
issue 1 and 2 (and maybe even an issue 4 - if it exists???)

CCGB awards lunch 1982

I recently acquired a copy of the Cartoonists' Club of Great Britain (CCGB) 22nd birthday lunch, the brochure is A4 sized (32 pages, A4) and is a mixture of commercial ads and examples of the nominees ads.

Here's the postcard sized invitation...

And here are the award winners, luckily the previous owner has marked all the winners...

Congratulations to Sid Burgon on his win
