Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for October 22, 2020

there’s a race horse named “Dance With Devil”?

The vicar is such an inspirational fellow. Just not the way he would like.

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny but it’s a repeat , the meddling Vicar’s pontification has got our HERO Mr Andrew Capp pondering and ended with Andy betting on a devil theme named nag :o) ,my avatar is a cartoon of a kid going appeal to his grandma to cancel his time out ,we would never interfere if our grand kids were punished because then our sons would stop coming to our home with their kid , were you ever given time outs? how was your day? ours should be vey busy but calm I hope , it’s stopped raining and Bella is back to normal :o) welcome back and keep safe pal

So then not all Andy Capp’s are reruns?

My Father used to play the sullkies unless the Horse was a real dog He would bet the Jockey, The old boy did all right never won big never lost big .

I put all my money on the little gray mare—but Stewball came in first (BTW, Stewball was a racehorse).

Andy remembered something imp-ortant, the wily old devil!

It takes an unbelievable amount of faith for the vicar to even look in Capp’s direction, much less to think he’ll ever change him.

Andy is definitely NOT doing the work of the devil. He never does work at all.

Are there bookies who take bets on which horse finishes last?

Vicar, if it weren’t for the Devil you’d be out of a job.

Thank you Vicar…..

It’s the Vicars job Susan. Besides it’s God’s will that none perish. Sadly most will.

Watch out it’s running with “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” in the same race.

Well I guess the vicar is useful for something. Haha.

@Afficionado

No, I don’t recall getting time outs. I was a pretty well behaved kid. However if I had a sibling (which I do but I’ve never met him) then they would probably be the naughty one. Haha.

My day was great.

Love to Bella.

If he loses he won’t be spending the money at the pub, well done Vicar.

With Andy’s luck, that horse will have a devil of a time making it to the finish line.

I bought a total black stallion the previous owner named Diablo. I called him Devil.
