Tottering-by-Gently Lord Tottering: An English Gentleman by Annie Tempest

Tottering-by-Gently Lord Tottering: An English Gentleman by Annie Tempest

Dicky Tottering lives with his wife, Daffy, and extended family in the dilapidated family pile, Tottering Hall. However, twenty-first century life for the lord of the manor is not quite how it used to be. While struggling at times to find his place in today's world, Dicky presents a uniquely British view of life for men of a certain age, coming to grips with the particular demands of grandchildren, retirement, the latest gadgets and a wife like Daffy. Whether dealing with universal themes such as ageing, relationships, and inter-generational differences or highlighting typical gentlemen's past times, this selection of cartoons from award-winning artist, Annie Tempest, illustrate daily life through his eyes only. Tottering-by-Gently cartoons have appeared weekly in Country Life magazine since 1994.

Over the past twenty years ANNIE TEMPEST has worked for all the major national newspapers and life-style magazines and has had numerous collections of her work published. In 2009 the Cartoon Art Trust awarded her the Pont Prize for the Portrayal of the British Character. She has had eighteen one-woman shows in the UK and overseas. Annie created the 'Westenders' strip for the Daily Express in the 1980s, the 'Yuppies' strip for the Daily Mail during the late '80s and early 90s. Since the 1994 'Tottering-by-Gently' has appeared weekly in Country Life magazine. Annie lives in Stibbard, Norfolk.
