what the hell is this about?

Several friends have embarked on their own P365 journey but as I have no camera nor an eye for photography I've decided to try to complete "a doodle a day" for an entire year. Most will be in my little Derwent A5 sketch book but some could end up being from the corner of some document or scribbled on a newspaper. As the year progresses I will try my hand at inking them as well?

If some of them don't make sense, don't worry, they're probably not meant to. You may notice there will be certain themes along the way and if you know me you'll know why.

I hope you enjoy.

Okay, here goes, every day til I'm 39.

Day #5 - what happens the rest of the year

about 15 years ago Mitch and I were for some reason in the Rocks, near the MCA, there was a mall behind some shops and the was a christmas themed petting zoo (sort of), well anyway, this little petting zoo was full of reindeer, apart from us there was also this young (early 30s)father and his son of about 6 or 7. Well one of these reindeer was a little randy and was humping one of the others. The little boy turned to his father and said "Daddy, what are they doing?", the young father suddenly froze, he was starting to stammer and redden, I took my queue and said to the little boy, "they're wrestling!", the father gave me this relieved thank you look and Mitch and I have cracked up about it ever since. Mitch sent me a txt this morning and I thought that this would be the perfect drawing for the day.
I've always wondered what they do for the rest of the year though, a lot of wrestling I guess?
