Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for February 15, 2023

amen to that, constable, on Andy’s part

A few steps and into the canal is par for the course for Andy.

Andy has no drinking problem…he drinks, he falls down, no problem!

providing that he keeps away from the canal

Andy is not planning to travel a thousand miles.

The journey could be just Chalkie with a wheel barrow!

Andy should get a car!

Puttin’ one foot in front of the other until he gets to the stoop.

Looks like Andy barley know which way up is. You had better turn him in the direction of his home, yeast he forgets which way that is too. But I wouldn’t stand too close to him. He looks like he is fermenting something nasty.

He may need eleven more.

Poor Andy looks like a zombie… At least. the bobbies could offer Andy some help to his own personalised cell.

One small step for a drunk… one giant leap for drunk kind!

Oops Andy……

I woke up in a Soho doorway, a policeman knew my name, He said, “You can go sleep at home tonight, if you can get up and walk away!”

So Andy lives on Durham Street? I’ve not seen that before.

Well….OK. It’s night and there doesn’t seem to be anybody out that could get run over.

At least he’s erect for a change.

He’s a lot faster when he’s going in the other direction.

Looks like Andy is going to need a police escort home via the station house.

Beware the canal, Andy.

Y’all may have heard of the Duval Street crawl. Andy’s version is the Durham Street stagger. ( Often in conjunction with the Canal Side soak. )

You have to admire Andy taking on a ‘Karate Kid’ pose in his current condition…!

Andy’s fall into the canal begins with a single step. (And a few dozen pints.)
