Hi there and welcome. This site features the cartoons, paintings and films of Glasgow artist David Moffat. I hope you enjoy your visit.
 

In the 1950s in Glasgow we would play a game with a pack of cards from which one of the four queens was removed. Pairs of cards were eliminated until the loser was left with the odd queen. Apparently this game is known as Old Maid. In a no nonsense, unsentimental Glasgow the game was called Scabby Queen.
