This was based on an original strip I did back in 1982. In it, a cat called Perdi, who doesn't appear in the modern version (Smudge takes her place in the strip's ecosystem of gags), was seen grinning like Jones does in panel 3. She repeated the same pose for two panels, with gradually more and more beads of sweat radiating from her. In the last panel she thinks "I don't understand this. Maybe you have to come from Cheshire for it to work". I took the premise and twisted it in a completely different direction for this storyline.
