Allergies
Allergies can be a real nuisance. Especially when you’re related to them. This strip is part one of a rare three-part series.
(This comic strip was previously published on December 6, 2010.)
Our Japanese friend Chieko sent us a Wombat Day greeting with a picture of Chewbacca, a Bare-nosed Wombat from Japan. Chieko has a huge collection of wombat pictures on her Womland website.

Lucky…I thought maybe chocolate. You can always live without Chris…. Kidding
Hey well done on beating
everyone here Loon and did
you have a nice Halloween
weekend π xxxx
If either of you have any leftover Halloween chocolate you can give it to me!
I always save you some chocolate no matter what time of the year it is so please help yourself to these my Vampy apprentice π
There are some extra juicy wine gums there too if you think that you can manage them π
Oh boy! All my Halloween chocolate is already gone! Thanks Andro! And I’ll take the wine gums too!
It’d be a lot easier to live without Chris than chocolate!
It looks like Chris is packing
his bags next, but at least Fraz
will lose his allergy π
I kinda don’t think so but I can hope!
I was rooting for you there Fraz but I don’t think Chris wants to leave π Never mind you can always ask him for a raise in your pocket money, though I doubt if you will get one knowing Chris…
Yeah I don’t think Chris will be leaving. Every time I ask him for money he gives me a lecture!
That is a great Wombat Day
gift by Chieko, I like it a lot π
Yes, it was! And Chewbacca, the wombat on the card, is probably the world’s oldest captive wombat (29 years old).
Wow that’s rather good for a Wombat, I hope he lives a lot longer, and he certainly deserves to Peter π
I hope Chewbacca is around for many more years, too.
I’m guessing an alternative can be thought up… some partnerships (allergies or not) are just meant to be! π
It’s difficult to part with some things.
I agree Rosey let’s give him a chance to smarten up his ideas, Chris is an allergy all to himself usually π
If Chris was allergic to himself I wonder what he would do?
I’m sneezing just thinking about him!
And you can’t even smell him!
Wouldn’t that be a bummer.
We could get Chris a nice doghouse.
That’s a great idea, or maybe shove him in one of the spare Zombie traps for a while, that should get him motivated π
I never thought of that! Chris is kinda like a zombie sometimes. Especially in the morning!
Especially when Chris is giving out chores!
Yeah! If he was giving out chocolate that would be different!
We should try that scenario Fraz, but will he be generous enough with chocolates as he is with all your house chores? It might be worth getting the Zombie traps organised, just in case π
I don’t think so. Chris never buys enough chocolate! Not even when we tell him to!
Bwahahahahahahahaha. I’m not thinking there is a cure for that kind of allergy. I can so relate though.
Have a fabulous day. π
I dunno but I hope there is a cure!
I think it’s the detergent he’s using.
It could be! Maybe he shouldn’t wear clothes!
I don’t think the world is ready for a naked Chris hanging around…
Yeah probably not. Maybe he could wear a tent or something.
There worse things to live without out…like chocolate.
You can always come live with me, Fraz!
I’d rather live with you but I don’t think Chris would let me! Even if I am allergic to him!
Well at least you can get away from him for winter, spring and summer breaks.
Enough of this for now. You need a chocolate and milkshake break…that will clear up your allergy
Maybe that’s it! Maybe it’s a “I haven’t had enough chocolate” allergy!
Let’s pile you up with a good days supply then.
Passing you a tray of chocolate donuts, 6 tins of chocolate fudge, and a gallon size chocolate milkshake!
OK! If I eat all that I’ll be too busy to sneeze!
Passing you a double order of the same to get you through the evening.
Maybe we should put you on chocolate syrup I.V for bedtime so you wake up feeling good.
That sounds like a good prescription for my allergy! I bet it’ll work too!
Then I’ll send Cookie over right away to set it up. Along with a healthy supply of chocolate goodies for the morning.
I hope there will be enough cookies so that I can have one Deb, I always love your sweet tasting deliciously made cookies, and maybe we, Fraz, binky, Winky, Twink and I could have some of your famous milkshakes? Wow what a feast for a Tuesday morning I can hardly wait π Yaaaaaaay
Yay! Thanks aunt Deb! I needed those cookies!
There’s always enough treats for you too Andro! Don’t worry!
Fraz is right Andro. Any chocolate, cookies and any food I drop off here is enough for you too. Fraz always share. But I tell you what Andro! I’ve got is nice big bowl of sprouts for you! π π
I’m glad you saved the sprouts for Andro and not me! I bet he’ll like them too!
I think that is a good way of thinking about it, and more chocolate is always a good solution π Bring on the goodies I say π
If I eat enough chocolate I don’t think I’ll be allergic to anything!
Chris needs to change his underarm deodorant. Or at least put some on!
I wonder if there’s any kind of deodorant that’ll make Chris disappear?
Yes and he needs to smile more too Joseph, actually if he threw away that stinky cologne he might get more happy tom see you votes π
I dont’ think Chris knows how to smile. He knows how to yell real good though!
Oops. That’s not good. Thanks for stopping by and listening to the ice cream song.

Hey I think that I need
to listen to that one Joyce π
It might be better if I had some ice cream!
Are there allergy shots available?
If I gave allergy shots to Chris would that make my allergy go away?
It’s not Chris Fraz – maybe you should stop eating chocolates for a week and the allergy may disappear.
Stop eating chocolates?? I’d die without chocolate!
A three part series?! Cool!
I sure hope Fraz isn’t allergic to Chris.
Give Fraz more chocolate Chris!!! That will help.
A very sweet postcard too!
Yeah, there are not many continuing story lines here since it doesn’t work well for a weekly strip.
I do need more chocolate!
I am allergic to Binky
Maybe you need more chocolate too!
Maybe you’re allergic to yourself, Fraz?
I hope not!! Then I wouldn’t be able to live with myself!
I suggest one of those bio-chemical suits Fraz that’d probably help contain your allergy.

One of those suits would be good for Chris! I wonder where I can order one online?
Poor Chris….maybe Fraz and Chris should go to an allergic therapy.
Can’t I just send Chris? He’s the one causing the problem!
No…he has the credit card, how can you buy food without him paying the credit card bill π
Oh yeah. I didn’t think about that. I guess Chris is kinda useful for something.
Fraz I sugest allergy spray.
Do they make an anti-human spray?
Last time I left the house in order…. few weeks later it is all nasty allergies… and people swapping houses…. what is going on? Is it an allergie coup?
If the allergies take over your house I don’t know what you could do! Maybe seal the whole house in a bag!
The date isn’t before my time with your site. I think I’ve been following along for nearly 5 years.
Yes, it does seem we’ve known each other for quite a while. Maybe you missed this set of comics.
