Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for May 16, 2019

Él no dijo la segunda parte, Andrés. (And where did Andy learn Spanish?)

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny , our Hero Mr Andrew Capp knows the name of beer in all the world’s languages but being a bum he added to the Spanish blokes request , to scrounge a pint :o) right? , my avatar today is a photo of you in your cute little dress of when you were 3 years old , so that maybe you will start commenting again :o{ , how was your day? ours should be busy like our Thursdays usually are , but not hectic I hope, have fun and thanks for caring pal.

“I don’t always drink beer, but when I do, I never drink with Capp!”

That’s a pretty loose interpretation. I think he said something more like, “and back the guy with cap up”. But I think it was more of a ‘move him away’ then another beer.

The three phrases a traveler should learn in another country are:

" Where are the bathrooms? "

" I’d like a beer, please. "

and " How much? "(followed by) " You’ve got to be joking! "

When I was in the Navy we’d operate out of Rota Spain. You quickly learned how to order 2 beers. But you stuck with local beers (san miguel, Cruzcampo, etc) because they added something that smelled suspiciously like formaldehyde as a preservative to imported beers.

Majorca, on holiday.

So convenient to know languages… ;-)

Andy knows need speak in any language!!

My god, could autocorrect be worse!! Let’s try this again! Andy knows beer speak in any language!

Every time I holiday in Spain and speak Spanish, I find that the reply comes in English. I spent several years learning the language from a Spanish teacher, so my accent must be a dead give away!

I found this pretty amusing!

@Afficionado

OK. You’ve lured me out! I’ll be using that photo of me in my next avatar.

My day went very well. Thank you. Wish me Luck for bingo tomorrow.

Third time lucky?

Andy is a boozer in any language.
