Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for December 30, 2023

One man’s kebab will never be another woman’s diamond necklace.

And whose money did he use…?

A diamond necklace….. on his ‘salary’? She’ have to wait a while.

That lazy moocher couldn’t find a necklace in a box of Cracker Jacks!!

Flo, you’ll have to get a better job so that Andy can buy you nice stuff!

Today’s strip reminds me of one of Reg Smythe’s strips from the 1980s which I have quoted before:-

Flo: How come you never give me anything?

Andy: I gave you a box of chocolates from the supermarket the other week.

Flo: You gave them me while we were still in the supermarket. I paid for them myself at the checkout.

Andy: IT’S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS!

Flo, Andy did something nice & now look what you’ve done.

He could buy her a nice pint of ale…if she’ll lend him a pound AND he doesn’t drink it first!!

Kebabs are a girls best friend!!ñ

no kebab is not nice, specially for dinner – no… not recommended (and less so if it is not spiced up)

Next week Doris Dunkins’ hubby, known as Dexter-The Dip-Dunkins, will slip his hand into the wrong pocket and wind up wearing bracelets, but not the diamond kind!

I wouldn’t mind being taken out for a nice kebab dinner.

Andy gave her all he had – himself and all his glory. Be still, my beating heart.

A little too flaky to be considered nice, Andy.

Flo’s taste is more feminine that Andy’s!

Now Flo you know if he buys you anything nice or expensive, it will be with your money. So what’s the point.

Was it on a skewer or a Donner?

With what. He hasn’t had a job in years. He’s worthless. He’s a bum. I don’t understand why she is still around. Of course, that would be the end of the strip.

Lucky she didn’t skewer him.

If Andy ever did buy Flo anything with his money, it will be the British tax payers paying for it, because Andy’s only source of income is his dole payment.

What would be the point? He’d buy it with HER money.

Diamonds may be a woman’s best friend, but they’re a bank account’s worst enemy.

You just can’t wear a kebab.

Yeah but he owns Duncan’s Donuts, he can afford it…

And he bought it with her money

A kebab of diamonds.

How can he buy her anything, he does not work,unless he can use Flo’s money to buy her something.

Anything he buys her will be with her money anyway…

Only Andy would think a kebab is a gift
