Les Ellis is an escapee from the world of offices and 9 to 5 work. In a moment of temporary sanity he quit that life and, together with his wife, set up a landscaping business. Since his schooldays his real love, however, has been making people laugh with his sharp and humorous cartoons and caricatures, honed and practiced on his unwitting teachers throughout his schooldays. He is now doing this on a regular basis in Home Farmer where his topical cartoons are bringing to faces far and wide. He lives in Hampshire, England.
