# From a writer's (unasked-for) point of view,
I'd knock an 'o' out of the Doorwich, and reconsider 'Bagworthy' altogether...

*EDIT* Constructive alternative name suggestions:

Lynch
Dorridge
Pon
Gul
D'Arby
Brunwal
Innit
Clunge
Whatt
Biltong
Wogan
Patel
Grief
Cadwalladr
De'Ath
Branson

# They are both joke names that reference moments/dialog in the script.
I'm not happy with the font, I will look for something better and thicker in the final.

edit: Dorridge might work better and is shorter. While still keeping the "door" reference, thx.

# Aha! As you can see above, I'm helping you!
I know the kind of bag one of those names is worthy of, and I also know which door t'other will be ejected from.

Then again, feel free to flick the Vs at me when yr graphic tale succeeds globally regardless of the poorly-selected names.

# "Dorridge & Sackworth".
There we go. Total verisimillitude.

(you can have "Bagworth" if you're really attached to the syllable 'bag', though)

# Sack by another name is a bag, yes.
Ok, done. Bags are referenced twice in the story as is/are doors.
I will not fail to mention your help when I post it, this weekend.

# Just for your records,
Dorridge is a village in the borough of Solihull, just south of Birmingham, England.
Sackworth could well be a village in Yorkshire, but I don't think it is. It just sounds like it is.

# The original ten stories all take place on a "Suburban train to London".
So that should work out fine. I've mixed it up and used a variety of
locations for my renditions of them. Mostly around transportation
type locations to keep with the original. This will be number six
of the set. Previously, if you or anyone missed any of them:
Arbitration, Panama, Buy Metal, Parish The Thought, and Brick By Brick.
Each under a megabyte.
