    who knew Andy was so limber doing cartwheels (I mean, he is in [sort of] good shape when he plays football).

    At least he was enthusiastic enough to do cartwheels, usually I imagine he just waves at her with a strong, open palmed, forward motion. I recall that there was one strip where Flo’s mum came to visit and commented that Andy had waved to her in the street, using all five of his fingers instead of just a select one.

    To the best of my knowledge, we have never been shown what Andy’s MIL looks like. She’s been left to our imaginations. Sort of a comic “fill in the blank”.

    Well, his body stays pretty fluid from all that ale.

    If he even tried they might need a cart to wheel him off.

    She inspires him to excel in his every endeavour.

    MIL should be happy he’s so spry at “his age”!

    In the next panel, Andy throws confetti in the air ad shouts “YIPPEE!” which makes Flo even angrier.

    Andy couldn’t have waited until she literally got out the door?

    There was only her foot to go!

    @Afficionado

    I know it was many years ago but I am sorry for yours and Connie’s loss. I have never watched somebody die before, I hope I’ll never have to either.

    My Dad’s cousin Pete came to our house today. He’s from Corby. We are all meeting at a pub at about 3pm on Wednesday. There will be me, my Mum & Dad, my Auntie, Pete and his 3 daughters and grandchildren.

    It’s a busy week for me but not “hectic” busy.

    Take care, pal.
