Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 23/09/2026P3/3 Very lucky to have an understanding neighbor who has allowed me to do this. Once the fence is replaced I will have a gap in the fence specifically for her to still be able to lean over and say hello to the dogs. Don’t want her to miss out. My body is in bits with all this manual labour 😅 010
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 23/09/2026P2/3 Also had to clear about 2 feet of her garden away from the fence in anticipation of rebuilding it next week and discovered a path that she didn’t know was there! 100
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 23/09/2026P1/3 My journey into landscaping continued over the weekend taking down the neighbors tree. The roots were on our side of the property and sat right where a newly planned retaining wall would be on the fence line. 100
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 13/09/2026Built a retaining wall this weekend. Well. Almost. Ran out of sand and cement for mortar as Mark is not so good at “the math” But footings are in. Rebar is in Back of bricks painted in blackjack. And bricks currently stacked and happy till I find time to mortar. Also. I’m absolutely in bits. 110

Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 03/06/2026And it ain’t 1707 pal. You could argue till the cows come home that Scotland would be worse off but at least it’s in their own hands. 000
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 03/06/2026Mate I’ve lived in Scotland for 15 years and I’m telling you Scots banks are not going to go out of their way to give me English notes. And you are right. It’s generally south of Manchester but it’s still always a pain in the arse. 100
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 03/06/2026Oh I’m aware but cash is a preference as do many businesses who get charged for each transaction. I’m sick to death of using card. Again making life harder for myself. 010

Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 03/06/2026“The short answer is it is up to them, as businesses outside of Scotland within the UK can decide whether or not they accept Scottish banknotes as a form of payment.” 200
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 03/06/2026Oh we need a chat. It’s a nightmare. “There's no Bank of England rules or laws governing what they have to accept - that's why, since the pandemic, some cafes, restaurants and retailers no longer take physical cash whatsoever, they're not obliged to.” 100
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 03/06/2026I’m going to Birmingham and London this weekend. I’ve spent 2 months saving “English” bank notes for the trip. If England really wanted a strong union with Scotland then accept our god damn Scottish bank notes!!! 440

Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 15/05/2026This absolutely works. I had over 160 subfolders for my 5 issue series THIS LAND establishing every element of the world and its characters and their personal journeys which the reader never got to see but absolutely came through and informed storytelling decisions. 051

Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 13/05/2026Great stuff Fraser! Is there a press release about with all the other creators listed? 120
Mark Abnett @markabnettcomics.com · 13/05/2026There was a few years after I accepted redundancy from my first long term career role where comics just weren’t in my budget. The public library was an absolute godsend. It also gave me the opportunity to try out new creators and characters that I previously had no interest in. Check them out. 082
