WOTM April 2022

First, apologies to those who gave up sleep waiting for the latest results - I had a long delayed wake to attend to last night so I'm a little behind the drag curve.

Next, congratulations to stewartbarclay who has been a consistent subber for some time now.  The might Wren came close and chrisf hasn't been too tardy, either.

As usual the cartoonist of the month competition is below the links to the FP, NiB and features and the full list of tickers is below them.
