etc, etc, Very nice Christmas card Colin ;)

By the way, to all Ascii artists out there, we seem
to get a lot of requests for dragons, wedding and Birthday
ascii. Perhaps someone could mail a compilation of these
each time it is requested.

Well its just a suggestion.

Anyway, here is a Minotaur (sic?) that I drew :


                                   .      .
                                   |\____/|
                                  (\|----|/)
                                   \ 0  0 /
                                    |    |
                                 ___/\../\____
                                /     --       \
                               /  \         /   \
                              |    \___/___/(   |
                              \   /|  }{   | \  )
                               \  ||__}{__|  |  |
                                \  |;;;;;;;\  \ / \_______
                                 \ /;;;;;;;;| [,,[|======'
                                   |;;;;;;/ |     /
                                   ||;;|\   |
                                   ||;;/|   /
                                   \_|:||__|
                                    \ ;||  /
                                    |= || =|
                                    |= /\ =|
                                    /_/  \_\

Hmmm,  I'll polish it up a bit later as Im busy with exams now :(


anyway here is the christmas card I admire so much :)
