Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for June 14, 2013

rain or shine, flood or heat wave, nothing can stop Andy from going to the pub (who’s gonna buy his round, though?)

Good strip today…. Smyth-ish, even!

“eldo” is fine with mi; i’m reclaiming the Kingdom i live-in.

That must be Jack’s Tugboat; Andy felt a tugging. ’Course you know how Andy functions near the Canal.

good thing Andy doesn’t _captain every Boat. Come On Down To My BoatThe video begins at 22 seconds in

How high it the water, Mama?From Johnny Cash:

Sixth on the list — the first five are the pints he will drink this even.

you know, This is the first ‘London’ drowning comic for 50+ years… What does that say?

Well, no paying customers anyway.

A man’s first loyalty is to his local.

This is Andy we’re talking about here! Did anyone think a little rain would keep him away from the pub? :-D

I’ll bet he still falls into the canal?

Happy Flag Day

Andy’s relationship to Water might be called indignant," seeing as that Water is a waste of non-Beer:Like how terrible It tastes:

Its capacity to cause pain:

. . . and the terrible things ‘non-leavened’ Water does:

Well aal this just makes Him sick, it does: . . . for Beer.

You think?

LOL xxx

@afficionado

Why do you ALWAYS think I’m mad at you?

Quite the opposite!

I’m sorry I wasn’t commenting here… I was commenting elsewhere as you know as I read your comment to me at The Buckets yesterday. The main reason was because I had things on my mind. The other reason was because of the Prof.

I would never leave here permanently.

I’m certain by now, the question first/foremost on Everyones’ Mis: "What does the quintessential English Band have to say about Water? . . .not-surprisingly, and not unlike eldo, the official AC ‘House Band’ has a mystical bent

Misty Waternote: “like” is used eupheMISTically

Somewhere off-panel, Charlie Brown is standing on his pitchers mound wondering where everybody else is…….\

@Chalkie jLoved the classics today! I wish I could find that old Don Martin cartoon where Andy Capp accidentally drinks water for the first time and of course gags on the foul taste.

Free Falling Friday Hugs ((((((( CAPPERS ! )))))))

The Plainsman from the state of mountains and Coors says:Early start Friday

In the misty,-Chalkie-water, I know where I belong and need to get back there (here) ! .Today’s Capp is typical Andy. Least he could have done is to have a full boat. That way someone else can do the rowing...If Dry calls that a little rain, I wonder what she calls a lot of rain. ..Glad to see you back, Three !..Am I the only one who’s waterlogged with Chalkie’s reCapps ? ……. ..Thanks for the “holiday” reminder, Stagger Lee...@jmcx4Thanks for doling out some “Cash” !

Bless This StudioWish i could be like David Watts, and lead this Team to victory; pretty-sure about taking my Exams [and passing the Lot][snerk]. Happy to observe, tho.

@ Qwee-dough “the rowboat Rowboat Dog” Murray:

“Today’s Capp is typical Andy. Least he could have done is to have a full boat. That way someone else can do the rowing. Toy boat toy boat toy boat yadda yadda natter nat”

Well, Andy doing actual work for a sup is pushing plausibility as-is; what You suggest is plain silly.Besides; i only have a limited imagination; can’t see anyone asides Andy leading the charge. . . . As for being ‘waterlogged,’ Sponges as-yerself need an occasional wringing. Hear anything, yet?

@Chalkie jYour combination of the “fog” Andy mates and the boat Andy is desperately paddling to the pub gave me my biggest laugh of the day! It showed far more imagination than the current lot of Andy despoilers is capable of most of the time. I still can’t find that Don Martin cartoon myself, maybe you or one of the other loyal Cappers will have more luck?

neither bing nor google brings up Dons Andy comic but found this one and thought it was representative of Dons greatness

maybe Chalkie or one of the other talented commentors can fix the size of it…

Andy finds a way, doesn’t he?Great strips today Chalkie j

I am seeing DOUBLE POSTS HERE! Is it just me?

And since I don’t have time to send an e as I am heading to my feather pillows sooner than later TELL THE MAN OF THE MOUNTAINS IN COLORDAO, THAT ANDY’S LITTLE RAIN AIN’T GOT NUTHIN’ OVER AGNES, IRENE OR SANDY! PISH, ANDY’S TRIALS WAS JUST A RIVER FLOAT!

Good Night Cappers.

Hope he doesn’t lose his stick.

I wonder what the NSA, et al thinks about our little gab fest here? Well, if they are listening in, I hope they get a laugh or two. I am now fully immersed in water aerobics(pun intended). It is amazing how sore I get from something thirty years ago would have been simply fun.
