Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for March 02, 2025

He’ll get a “replacement” (not Jack’s) boot out the door!

Must be a brand new pub—one that hasn’t yet heard of that freeloader!

hmm not all barmen are Jacks, Andy….

Just bar him, barman.

Because you would just pour it down the drain and that would be a waste of beer.

that is an old scheme where I frequent

When my local introduces guest beers, it’s common practice to try a ‘sample’ before purchasing. I make a point of trying all of them.

I’m basically receiving a free pint. A cocktail but a pint all the same!

Hic!

As Judge Judy always says, Andy, “You ate the steak! Your case is dismissed! Good-bye!” LOL

That “before” will be a long time.

CLASSIC ANDY CAPP Dept.

(4 panels.)

//////

Andy is walking out of the pub into the mist.

In the second panel, two other drunks ask Andy to settle an argument.

In the third panel, one of the drunks asks Andy if it’s the Sun or the Moon shining in the sky.

An indifferent Andy replies, “Couldn’t tell yer, mate – l’m a stranger in these parts.”

(°C(l#,

Is the punchline flat as well?

Do you really think he’ll buy that?

Gallant effort, Andy!

Leave it to Andy

Tell me – do they still serve warm beer in England?

Not buying it, a beer connoisseur like Andy would know it’s flat on first gulp.

Also, I wonder how he got the beer, there’s no one there to cadge from.

No rush to judgement, right mate?

I wonder how many times Andy has pulled that prank and been successful?

Smart Barman would only replace the Beer that Andy had not drank. A small swallow left?

Maybe the bartender should pour the replacement over Andy’s head.

Andy reminds me of Big Bad Leroy Brown. I’m sure Jim would appreciate the compliment.

Andy apparently snuck into a higher class establishment. And he’s about to get his free flying lesson from the bouncer.

“Sorry, Mate, you just drank the evidence!”
