Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for May 13, 2021

The door’s that way, Mister Capp.

Goodbye and Good Riddance.

Well, Cappers. It looks like my comment the other day was flagged and deleted again.

It’s possible that the photos I post could maybe attract… Shall we say the “wrong audience” and my full name is displayed so maybe there is some genuine concern about that? I appreciate and understand that concern, I really do.

On the other hand it could be somebody who really doesn’t like me. Oh dear, I’m going to lose so much sleep over that. Haha.

So I’m not posting any photos today. I don’t have any new ones. But as you can see, my avatar has changed.

Hope everybody is having a lovely week. Unless I get physically banned from GC, I’m still standing, preferably on a sunset beach as shown!

you had him at Barnes, Ted, and the second frank

Unhappily, he wanted good references.

Andy hangs out with that lot to make himself look respectable!

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny but a variation of a theme , our HERO Mr Andrew Capp’s references to get a loan are more crooked than a Polititian , so it’s no wonder he was sent off :o), my avatar is a spoof about a toothbrush lamenting about having a dirty job and the toilet paper roll knows his job is more yucky , so people should stop whining about their job, others are worst off , how was your day? our Manic Monday should be busy as usual but we should cope I hope , the stolen wallet saga is nearly resolved ,we both are in a good mood and no errands to run till Alex comes over , keep safe and thanks for caring young Lady

Oh no , it’s Monday the 13th :oP

He didn’t get the chance to mention R. Dunn and Capped.

At least he doesn’t know any realtors, that’s a point in his favor.

Andy may want to remind this lad of his close friendship with Bruiser – one who is known for his strong ability to persuade such loans to go through…

You may as well kiss that loan goodbye, Andy!

With friends like that, Andy could stand a loan.

Before they get to references, they usually ask about income. The interview would end there.

@Number Three All’s well that ends well , Alex came over and started preparations for setting up the CCTV cameras , when set up I will be able to see who’s at the door from my desk top screen meanwhile my ID card has arrived too .

Birds of a feather flock together. Andy keeps some bad company.

At the first loan company he visited Capp was asked if he had any collateral. He replied, “If I had anything like THAT I wouldn’t need the flipping loan!” They also told him good-bye!

I think he’s referring to Frank the used car dealer, and you know what kind of reputation they have. Not to mention, he doesn’t have a car.

@Afficionado

Hey, Affie!

That is amazing news. A few years ago, somebody stole my Mum’s hanging baskets from our front door. I was about to set off for work at the time. We don’t have CCTV. Our back garden is far more private.

I’m so pleased things are getting sorted for you now.

And as for toilet roll, some certain individuals need that for their mouth and not their bottom.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal.

A little clueless today, Andy? You should be able to figure out that those guys won’t be the most sterling references.

Andy might as well listed Jack the Ripper and Charles Manson as references.
