Norman McCaig was a scottish poet who so impressed us with his poetry and name that we rechristened him Nurmin MacQuaggey and recorded his adventures in cartoon form as the Norman McCaig Saga .

This three-part epic featured Norman meeting someone and saying “I am the poet McCaig”, before receiving pieces of sage advice.

His three oracles were a man with a large hammer, Yoda and the Jewish Cheese Man. Jewish Cheese Man regularly appeared in our workbook defacing, and had a book of Norman’s poetry hidden in his large cossack-style hat.
