Visual description - NZRA Cartoon#11
That's not my funny bone, that's my ulnar nerve#11
The cartoon contains three panels. The title of the cartoon is "Wheelchairs of the Future"
The first panel is of two people on a street. The first person (a woman standing) says "Aw, jeez. I really need to get to Auckland today and I missed my flight!" The second person (a young man in a wheelchair) replies "Hop on. I'll take you."
In the second panel of the cartoon, the woman is on the man's lap in his wheelchair, he presses a button on the arm of his chair: "Beep!"
The third panel is a panorama of downtown Wellington (Lambton Quay, but it is unlikely anyone not reading this visual description would have noticed that!). The wheelchair shoots off into the air and across the sky.
... I'm not sure these cartoons, which were barely funny to begin with, do much better in the telling! Keeps me entertained though.
