Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for April 26, 2021

I’d say he could turn it off himself or move to another room, but that still wouldn’t work.

@Gweedo it’s legal here Murray

! You still had a “brief notice” tho — everybody’s getting the notice; few are going beyond.

I got that notice but once and since then I open the “live links” tool and see them right here, under the intros; same as usual.

Yes, you can move beyond you just have a warning show up that the site may be unsafe. I’m taking my chances and enjoying the archives. Just depends on how risk averse you may be. Hopefully the archives will update their security certificate now that the regular workweek has arrived and we can go back to safely viewing the classics.

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny, we knew that our HERO Mr Andrew Capp was lazy, but not to the extent of listening unwillingly to bad news about his pubs closing and the price of beer rising rather than getting up and turn the idiot box off is too much :o) my avatar is a spoof of how a bed would look if one slept alone and curled up like I do how was your day? our Manic Monday should be busy as usual but at least I am not as miserable as I was yesterday and early this morning with my left arm hurting like the blazes and a very upset stomach because of the effects of the anti Covid19 jab I had on Saturday, but it was better than kicking the bucket or infecting other people , keep safe and thanks for caring young Lady and yes I think that bev IS miffed at me

The painting changed color. The artist must be in their blue period…

Sorry Andy, Flo is still ticked off at you, turn it off yourself you lazy bum.

Can’t you get one of those clappers. You now the one that go “Clap on,… Clap off”. Haven’t seen them around for awhile. But it should be just the thing for a lazy oaf like Andy.

Can any person really be that lazy?

You’re just having a terrible nightmare Andy, your world will resume when you wake up.

Reality can be upsetting. Not enough, apparently, to inspire any action on Mr. Capp’s part.

I haven’t seen a TV like that for years. But, then again, I don’t watch it anyway.

Ohhhhh poor Andy ,what’ll he do without his beer!!!!!???

This just in: dart boards in short supply and snooker cue prices going up.

Even though Andy has his back to it, the bad news just won’t go away!

Laziness triumphs! Andy won’t even get up to turn bad news off.

But who turned it on?

BTW, where is She Who Must Be Revered? :-0

“Everybody on the dole will now be required to do volunteer work at least three times a week”

Imagine if THAT came across on the news. Andy won’t even look for actual paid work, never mind unpaid voluntary work.

@Afficionado

Hey, Affie.

On Thursday we have the electrician coming to test the sockets in my bedroom which means I will have to be up earlier starting from tomorrow as the wardrobe and bed needs to be moved for the electrician to have access to the sockets easily.

I plan to visit my favourite beach tomorrow. I might as well go out somewhere seeing as I have to be out of bed earlier than I’d like. But I still might leave later in the day. In case my Dad needs help with some stuff.

Will update on how everything goes. There is a minor electrical fault and it could possibly be in my room because my Dad’s room has already been checked and he didn’t mention a fault coming from there.

I’m not sure how often you email Bev but I would give her a bit space.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal.

Andy’s too lazy to get up and do it himself

I swear, the news is impossible to watch these days. It’s gotten to the point that horror movies seem pleasant by comparison.

I’m thinkin’ bad news like that can only be received with a beer and a shot of whiskey close to hand …

Hurry Flo, Andy’s getting depressed.
