    I’m glad to see you have discovered the work of Dave Walker, which is one of the best reasons for getting the UK Church Times. He mentions choirs quite often so you may find other recognizable characters on his cartoon church site. My own favorite is  “Furniture“.

    This is great (God love’em) but I am missing a few . . .
     
    The Head downer: haven’t seen his face in ten years but has the most expressive scalp in the church
     
    The mover and shaker: can even swing her hips to “Battle Hymn of the Republic”
     
    The corrector: passive aggressively asks for clarity on the most nominal detail after the first read through
     
    Lost in the night: on each of the conductor’s preperatory beat asks “where are we?”
     
    Cheers!
