Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for February 05, 2022

intriguing

Be glad he is home Flo…keep the insults to a minimum

The Lion roaring on the Veldt and Andy singing coming home from the Rose and Crown, all normal sounds of their particular environment.

I haven’t noticed this before, but when did American start creeping into our strip – KILOMETERS ?

American? They don’t know what a kilometre is!!

That is something that I do not want to hear.

A tiger has stripes. Does Flo want Andy in stripes? Possibly as in prison stripes?

If Capp is a tiger, he’s a paper one.

Speaking of singing, here’s Andy’s take on the subject (just to tide us over until Eldo or RJM can join us).

Joseph Mallord William Turner Repro Print still looking vague.

Andy walks 3 kilometers?

A cabinet TV, wow! I’m surprised it still works!

When a tiger brags that his cereal is “Grrrrrrrrrreat!”, from how far away can that be heard?

“Hold that Tiger” is perhaps the best rag time tune ever esp the version by Jelly Roll Morton where he plays the piano with his elbow on the slide.

Something to sing about.

Does Hobbes know this? Coincidentally, this year is the Year of the Tiger.
