Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for December 01, 2021

“Falls” for it every time.

No, Florrie, he was in a lake. (What’s the nearest lake from Hartlepool anyway?)

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny, our HERO Mr Andrew Capp’s trying out his youth’s capabilities ended up with the little sot getting all wet :o) my avatar again is my birth sign Leo roaring his head off because he’s happy like I am because yesterday’s prosedure by Connie at the Health Centre had a good result , thank God , how was your day? ours should be slightly busy but we will cope I hope , we both are in a good mood , no shopping or errands to run just stay in the house and keep hydrated , keep safe and thanks for caring young Lady

no matter how drunk Andy becomes, he can NEVER sing “How Dry I Am”

We all think we are younger, and more capable that we really are, especially as we get older.

Andy channels the canal!

And apparently without even the enjoyment of having a drink.

Flo must either really love Andy or be really desperate to constantly endure Andy’s foolishness!

London bookies wouldn’t have put a line on that happening.

The problem with a drunk is – the drunk!

I double dog dare you.

And Andy’s first act after being pulled from the canal was to toss Chalkie in…

I think he’s saying that you’re dumb as a rock.

Tell her you were lookin’ for fish on the hoof.. ask her if she has any chips.. she’ll say no.. you’ll be off the hook so you can say.. “good, I couldn’t get any fish either…”

I have a different mind’s eye view of British canals since discovering some videos about narrow boat cruising.

Chalkie has that “oh boy here we go” look and then Andy squelch’s all the way home.

The ‘Squelch’ in the last panel was me today because it was raining.

@Afficionado

Great news about Connie!

I was busier than usual at my volunteering today but it sure as hell passed the time. I wasn’t able to go for a KFC because it had closed due to issues with the fryers (sparks were coming off them) So instead I went to the Halal chicken place and got a Boneless Loaded Box with gravy. Mmmm…

I managed to get my friend’s Pokemon cards. And I also managed to set off the alarms in the supermarket. Next thing I knew a security guard was behind me asking to see my receipt. Thank the Lord I had it. Seeing as it was a present for a friend, I thought it would be wise to keep hold of the receipt. If it had been any different, I might have been carted away in a police car tonight. However I wasn’t embarrassed because I knew I paid for the items and had the receipt to prove it. I had done nothing wrong. The security guard was really nice too. But I guess he wouldn’t have been so nice if I was an actual shoplifter.

I also bought a £50 Google Play gift voucher from a different store which can only be used on my birthday. So my Mum is putting it away for me. My parents gave me the money for it.

What a day.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal.

I ain’t as good as I once was, but I’m as good once, as I ever was.

Lucky for Andy there are no alligators in the canal.

No, Chalkie is telling you you’re old, and unfit, and TOO DRUNK to accept it.

Good ol Andy

Apparently Andy isn’t as good once as he ever was.
