Zemke and the Crew

Who Borrowed the Good Drill?

Finding lost tools on a small crew

· #15

Three-panel comic. Gail asks who's got the good drill. Kev says not since Tuesday, Monty has checked the shed, the esky and behind the cement mixer, and Bec has the receipt. In the last panel the drill, tagged GOOD, is in the tray of Gail's own ute. Gail: 'Ah. I was minding it.' Kev: 'For three weeks?'

The problem in this strip

Where does the good drill always go? Every crew has one good tool and a mystery about who had it last.

Meet the crew: Gail the giraffe is the owner. She's great at running the business and terrible at returning the good drill.
