Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for September 29, 2020

I’m also as stumped as Flo.

I would love to know the story behind how Andy got the money for this. It could be as banal as finding a lost wad of cash or as maybe Andy had a lucky day at the races.

She’s thinking “Who IS this man, and what has he done with my husband?”

Totally saved! LOVE it when Andy’s cool to Flo. Love his smile in panel 2 and how pleased he looks to be bringing her a drink in panel 3. I hope Flo snaps out of the shock and enjoys their evening!

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny but a bit baffling , how come is our Hero Mr Andrew Capp paying for their drinks? no wonder Flo looks dazed in the last frame :o) my avatar is of a bomb tech wearing a T-shirt with a logo printed on it that if you see him running follow him ,you can bet your last penny I would , wouldn’t you? :o) how was your day? ours should be busy but calm I hope and now Bella is home for good and does not have to go to the vets anymore , stay safe and thanks for caring pal

Thanks to all commenters that wished us luck

my Jaw is hanging open ! ( What is the sound for that ? )

Any second now, Flo will wake up….

3,2,1, ARRG! Should have known it was a dream.

The Boilermakers’ Club is giving away beer?

Must be a free bar

Could it be… Andy… Got… A job???? Naaaaaa.

Andy must have hit the trifecta at the track.

Andy buying drinks!!?? For flo???

This must be Calvin’s fantasy world overlapping into Andy’s world.

He won at the tracks…..

Did he sell a pigeon?

She is probably dreaming!

Will miracles never cease!?!

This has been a year of shocks and surprises – most of ‘em unpleasant – but this really takes the biscuit! Who is this imposter? What’s he done with the real Andy Capp?

The only explanation is alien abduction and replacement with a thoughtful replicant.

Think back to panel 2 folks. There’s probably a reason he said to leave her purse at home, it’s already been raided.

Did he have a big win at the horse track?

Sign post ahead, you are now entering the Twilight Zone…

Unbelievable! And I mean exactly that…unbelievable. Nice to see, though.

Virtual reality? Haha.

@Number Three There is a sit that I saw that could be useful to you knowyourpast.com.UK

@Afficionado

I’m really happy that Bella no longer needs to go to the vet. Sending many positive vibes.

Been a lovely day here today. Nice and sunny. Unfortunately our washing machine has a leak and a guy is coming on Thursday to see to it.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal.

For once, I wish this strip had a sound track.

Andy must have finally had a good day at the track!

Be careful, Andy…don’t set the “bar” too high! :D

One of Andy’s nags must have finished in the money.

Looking at pretty girls dancing is as good a pick-me-up tonic as is Granny Clampets.

Who is this guy and what has he done with the real Andy?!

I’m in shock! What’s the catch, Andy?

Did someone pay him something after locking the developer in the basement, yesterday, or is he hiding from those who want to arrest him for kidnapping?

Must have witnessed something scandalous and perhaps was paid to keep it to himself.

Careful sweetheart. It comes later.

Just then, the alarm went off and Flo woke up…
