Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for February 17, 2024

Check the dumpster!

Guess who put it there.

the one with the empty glass

i guess he is just Bob now Andy…

Who hasn’t??

I used to love going to Jamborees on Sunday afternoons

What’s amazing that bob’s beer glass on the floor is still extant!

I’m surprised he still has a glass of ale there with Andy at the bar

The gentlemen at the bar did a riverdance routine on it.

We used it for kindling.

Did you smash it Andy? I hope you did.

Is that a guitar down your trouser leg, or are you just pleased to see me?

Check under the sign. In a small box. It may look different.

Andy sold your guitar for the price of an ale.

Biggest pint glasses ever. We used to get beer in mugs – what gives?

I suppose that’s better than hiding Bob…

Hiding in fear and desperation !

Fancy pint Love?

We know a guy, a really nice fellow who buys his own. When the waitress brings the first bottle of beer he orders his second.

I’m surprised he didn’t Guitar Bob Pint too. Andy, what is wrong with you?

Follow their eyes…..

All guilty.

Too bad they can’t hide your vocal cords

Cheer up Bob, he didn’t touch your beer!

Purple guy in the middle must be new in town — no beer, no cap.

It can’t be Andy — he would have downed Bob’s glass, too.

It would be a bit funnier if the guitar were tucked under the bar, by Andy. It would just visually reinforce the gag.

The drink8ng crew and bartender hid your guitar

He’s been disarmed.

Must be a request!

Wait. He left a pint on the floor by his stool and Andy didn’t cadge it? Pure fantasy!

They collaborated.

Andy is innocent on this one. A Sherlock Holmes answer. Chalkie has a full pint of the Beloved’d Guiness. Andy pint is empty, therefor. Chalkie isn’t buying. Guitar Bob’s pint remained untouched while he was gone. It is reasonable to say if Andy went to where Bob was playing, he would opt for the pint over the guitar. Andy can tolerate the music if he has a pint.

It’s a wonder Andy didn’t drink Bob’s beer that’s on the floor.

“Well, fortunately, whoever it was wasn’t able to take my voice. So while we’re waiting for the culprit to be found, this next song is a wonderful a capella number that I picked up from watching Barney Fife….”

Someone with good taste in music, that’s who.

The guitar is only half the problem, the other half is his singing.

I’ll bet it’s already down at the pawn shop.

Good thing Bob doesn’t play Grand Piano!

Up the cannel without a paddle.

The guitar ran away.
