A new cartoon-based website, www.richardthelionfart.com, which follows the comic aspects of the everyday life of a rather unusual character has just been launched. The focus of the cartoons is Richard the Lionfart, an average, everyday kind of guy, except for one thing: he suffers from a rather bad case of wind. Though to say he suffers wouldn't be quite accurate... it's his wife Mary and neighbours you have to feel sorry for. Richard and his friend Jim are all for celebrating his special 'talent' - it's funny, it's loud (though sometimes a bit smelly), and it's like saying something you didn't mean to say, it just comes out!

New cartoons are uploaded on the site every week along with Random Richard 'quotes' which appear randomly. Fans can also sign up for email updates on the site to be alerted whenever new cartoons are posted, or follow Richard the Lionfart on Twitter (search 'thelionfart'), Bebo, MySpace or Facebook. A range of printed merchandise is available on the site, including t-shirts, mugs, pencil case sets, mouse mats and BBQ/work aprons. A gift for yourself or someone else with a little bit of fun on it.
