Sadly I've not had much luck in tracking down this piece of... well, literary history is probably the most complimentary way I can describe it, but I will endevour to find it this evening; as a prelude I give you a breakdown of some of the main characters from the twelve or so episodes I wrote

Eric the goblin; the alleged main character, who has a tendancy to explode or turn into bizarre objects, as well as repeatedly utter his annoying catchphrase 'Billy bonny banny zanny wow' for no reason whatsoever.
Alfred the gnome; holds the story together, actually attempts to do things and is therefore pretty damn boring.
Kharl von flappenwing. The universes most evil facist dictator penguin, ruler of the killer penguin hordes (who tend to get repeatedly blown up). The killer penguins are vicious, evil and virtually unstoppable, unless of course you shout 'Polar bears' at which point they all scream and hide.
David the Iguana. Based loosely on someone I once knew, David the Iguana is more interested in getting stoned and smoking anything that isn't nailed down than actually doing anything useful. Designer of the all terrain armoured unicycle.

That sounds.... interesting. Looking forward to reading it if you can find it again.

Talking about penguins in literature, have you ever read the novel Death and the Penguin?

Not heard of that one, any good? Aside from the obvious penguin content that is :)

Yes, it is quite amusing, and a good translation from the original Russian. My employees gave it to me when I left my previous job, as they could not find a fluffy penguin as a present. If I can find my copy I will bring it with me at the end of the month and you can read it.

You do realise that I now have this barely repressible urge to run around the office shouting "Billy bonny banny zanny wow!" over and over again, and it's all your fault?
