Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for May 13, 2016

or Venice!

If Andy used a regular toilet instead of the canal bank "e would avoid accidents and stay a lot drier………..

My uncle died in a street fight in Venice. He drowned.

Even Bangkok has a bit of canals…

If only the canal was full of beer… Andy would be permanently in speedos!

Beer used to be a lot cheaper in Amsterdam but didn’t taste as nice as a pint of English best bitter.

Seriously? At least Bev’s posts are unique, entertaining and witty. Yours…..not so much.

Usually I like gopher gofer but today he appears to be……out of character, to say the least. Sixteen (count ‘em!) repeats of a program that didn’t deserve to be aired in the first place……..

@Number ThreeThanks for posting my song yesterday! I can never get enough of Benny Hill. In fact, I’m not sure that Benny Hill ever got enough of Benny Hill!

My cousin has been to Amsterdam. He went on a cruise ship.

I am soooo jealous!xxx

Re the Wacky Clackers (as they were called back when I was a teenager): My mother, apparently having gone insane, bought some for my 7 siblings. Not only that, she bought one of those push toys with plastic balls that sound like popcorn popping. After a few days of this unending racket, I confiscated them all and hid them in a good place where their desperate searching never found them. My mother, apparently having regained her sanity, didn’t buy any more. After I moved away to college, I told them where I had hidden them. :-D

Not sure what went on earlier (since I usually come on late in the day) with gopher, since all the posts have apparently been removed. I don’t see a single one.

I remember clackers, I wasn’t allowed to buy them… inretrospect, my parents were right, on THAT one! (for a change :p )

We have a little canal by my place… I’ve never fallen into it, but, I have JUMPED into it, a few times (And walked 30 feet down to the bottom, when they had it drained for annual winter repairs).pic host
