Any ideas???

Hi, thank you for reading my humble blog. ("Blog" is a funny word, isn't it? It rhymes with 'frog'!)

Suntar the crocodile is fun for me to draw but often I need help with ideas! If you have any English "slip ups" (mistakes) that you can remember, or things you think are strange about English, or even something you don't like about English, please tell me;

I would love to hear about your own adventures with English! No matter how simple or how strange! I'm "all ears"!!! And most of all, I would love to make a funny story about Suntar with some of the information you give me! I hope Suntar can keep making you laugh!
Good evening!
I hope you all had a lovely Monday!
At least, I hope it was better than Suntar's Monday...
Oh, Suntar! Not again!


(The idea for this comic came from my twitter friend @miho_starfield,
thank you Miho-san!)

This was Suntar's first date. He failed to impress his girlfriend because he mispronounced a word which made it sound like something yucky! He said "sh" instead of "s" which changed the meaning of "sit down" into something else.....
Hi Everyone! I want to introduce you to "Suntar" who is my favorite crocodile in the whole wide world! He is often getting into trouble with mistakes in English! I hope he has some good luck soon. :( Please enjoy his adventures! Let me know if there is something you want me to ask him!
Have fun with English!

Today is the first of April; "April fools' day". I still don't know why we call it that but I do remember having important rules for it, as a child: 1 You could trick somebody by playing a prank, but only before 12 o'clock noon. This would make the person you tricked an "April fool". (Popular pranks were hiding someone's belongings or making them believe a 'white lie'.) 2 If you didn't watch the time and played a prank after 12 o'clock noon, you became an "April fool". I am writing this in the afternoon so it looks like this year I was a bit slow! If I were to play a prank now I'd become an "April fool"! Happy First of April Everyone!
