Named to celebrate the 25th anniversary year of Annie Tempest’s classic weekly cartoon, 'Tottering-by-Gently'. First published in Country Life magazine in January 1994, it depicts the everyday capers of Dicky and Daffy Tottering at Tottering Hall. The tongue-in-cheek humour cleverly addresses differing social perspectives of our time.
