@Linguist Today’s strip IS funny the nags that our Hero Mr Andrew Capp bets on are always losers,Andy should have used the money he "borrowed " from Flo at Jack’s pub :o) , my avatar is a parody about the stupidity of people going to keep fit classes using the escalators to get inside the Gym , I like Groucho Marx’s quote that the only exercise he gets was attending the funerals of his keep fit fanatic friends:o) , spero che state bene mio meno vecchio amicho , our day should be busy but calm I hope, a bientot .
Back in October, there was a horse called “Buster’s Dad” which several UK readers including myself saw as a reference to “Buster – Son of Andy Capp” in Buster Comic. The horse’s in today’s strip may also refer to Buster comic strips. One of them certainly seems to as there was a strip called “Boxatricks” in Buster during the late 1970s. It was drawn by Brian Walker who had drawn “Scream Inn” for Shiver And Shake and had continued this strip in Whoopee!for another three years.

additionally, the paint will dry (where Andy hasn’t been kicked out of — when asking yesterday — is town)

Your horse, Andy, is still in the stall.

Andy’s limitations are limitless when it comes to betting on horses.

He’s a bit shy and doesn’t want his picture taken.

Flo wouldn’t be laughing if it was HER money Andy was betting. (which it very well could be.)
