True story: remodeling our little non-profit music venue and the “plumber” we hired cut out a load-bearing stud last week so that he could run some pipe. When we pointed out his error, he said that the missing stud was not bearing any load. “See? It would collapse!”
Well tupping liberty..where’s Graham McGraw when you need him? He would have sorted this lot out in a safe responsible way, but I guess he would be in Northhampton at this time and probably in his early teens? But Shelley always lands on her feet so I won’t worry about her titting around with a sledge hammer at a load bearing wall.
You shouldn’t take your bath until spring—otherwise you’ll wash off all the protective oils and such that will insulate and preserve you during the harsh winter storms and cold. Don’t risk your health!
His shirt says either “Harvey” or “Harvard”. I am going to go with Harvey.
And hers reads “GAMS”
Or GAL
I like to think Shelly is one of the Mitford sisters or Amelia Earhart re-incarnated.
You can see some more of the writing on their shirts in the previous comic.
If a loadbearing wall can be knocked down with a sledgehammer by one man, the building deserves to fall down.
Preferably not on top of our heroes, though.
It certainly helps that the studs are what appears to be twelve feet on center.
They should have called for O’Reilly’s men for remodelling. AKA Orally-Men. They know load-bearing walls and how to remove them.
And they like a woman with spirit too!
Hm… Sybil and Shelley… sisters in spirit? Well, maybe 2nd cousins, once removed.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I really enjoyed the characters of Giant Days and hope they’ll shop up again someday.
Or, when she doesn’t land on her feet, she at least ends up in a position where she can recover her footing fairly easily.
