Welcome to Ngaromanga Bay

Hi there and welcome to what may be the next internet phenomenon after the lolcats, the lightsaber kid, and that guy who does all the of dances. Alternately it may just be a passing fancy like when I thought I'd look cool with glasses.  Either way, it's going to happen here.

Ngaromanga Bay has been stewing in my head for a while now; somewhere between Springfield, Royston Vasey and  Footrot Flats. And now, finally, the stew's all bubbled up, oozed over the side and somehow made it onto the internet.

Ngaromanga Bay is a small town on the coast of New Zealand somewhere, hemmed in on three sides by some big damn mountains and on the fourth by the vast and unforgiving ocean. Cut off for the most part from the rest of the world, the locals of Ngaromanga Bay have become a little... I believe the politically correct term is quirky. The non-politically correct term is definitely 'mental'.  

The plan is that there will be a new cartoon every week, just as long as i can wrestle Photoshop into submission and life doesn't get in the way, which it does have a habit of doing. But lets see how we go anyway.

So please join Silt, Jonah, Aaron, and all the characters I haven't quite decided on names for as they live, love and have zany unpredictable misunderstandings in Ngaromanga Bay.
