    What I’d like to try eating in order to warm me up is Japanese oden. Too bad I’ve never been to the northernmost prefecture Hokkaido nor to Japan in general.

    Aye Good one N. I surely wanted a 4th panel to see if Andy ACTUALLY asked Jack for a cup of tea or a steaming bowl of soup? AND does ANYONE,really think either of those ever had a chance of actually happening? Perhaps those what still believe in the Tooth Fairy or the Easter Bunny? Oye K of L: since Andy hasn’t had his usual number of pints yet,he may have been able to see a full moon,and not imagine it under the influence of the pints?

    A nice hot whiskey would go down nicely,

    Two nagging questions about today’s strip;

    i) Is Andy saying ‘please Jack, not a pint in this kind of weather’, or ‘please Jack (go ahead I’m having just that)’

    ii) Is the picture in the bar saying, ‘NO BEER!’

    iii) why did Andy go to Jack’s in spite of his warm thoughts…?

    (Sorry, couldn’t avoid the last Q)

    Should and what’s at hand. Someone educate the colonist, please? I was under the impression that pubs served food. If they do, is it required or are there some that we would call bars?

    Well Andy, I know how much you love your beer, but if you also like wine, my mom’s been known to heat up wine when it gets cold enough out. Maybe you could get Jack to serve you some of that!

    When I lived in Ireland, there was nothing better to take the chill out of your bones, on a winter’s night, than a hot sling ( toddy ) of whisky, hot water, lemon and sugar.

    At home, I use honey instead of sugar and add cloves. Great for colds, sore throats, and generally feeling better, in spite of the weather.

    I made Andy a hot toddy

    But it turned out rather shoddy

    But I’ve observed

    Quite well-preserved

    Is Andy Capp’s own body!

    I drink iced tea all throughout the year, no matter how cold it gets. Still, a hot cup of tea and a hot bowl of soup are a great comfort on a cold day. By the way, I’ll gladly take a cold day over a windy day any time. Cold days are easier to deal with. In fact, I like it when it’s so cold that everything is still. No wind, not even the slightest breeze.
