Fred Basset by Alex Graham for December 24, 2024

Now Fred will have to show him how to get to his house.

He’s not the only one weak willed at this time of year. You’re the responsible one right now. Deliver him home safely.

Twisting that rubber arm.

This time of year I would be afraid to drive if I had just used mouth wash. I think the limits is only 0.05ppm.

But most neighbors here are smoking cannabis. It’s legal. Hope they are not driving. Chong;"Hey man, you just went right through a stop sign! ". Cheech “Aw man, don’t worry! I’ll stop twice at the next one.”

Fred’s action move in the first panel is so powerfully drawn ❤️ I can feel his momentum :-)

Holiday excuse works every time ;-) … Merry Christmas to All !

‘Mrs. Dear’ is not going to be happy with him ! ! ! !

During all the conversation, he could have had another one!

I hope he does not live near the canal like Andy Capp.

I never go out for a pint without my wife. She has a CC that gives cash back on all restaurant purchases!

If a little is good, a lot is better

Mr. Dear is easily influenced to be under the influence

My, how times have changed!

I’d like one, too, if you’re buying!

I hope that Fred can drive home from The Barrington-Smythes since looks like the old man’s getting toasted

And “another one” so often leads to “another another one”, and so on. I’m glad I’m a lightweight and limit myself to one drink (occasionally two). That also saves a lot on cost! My biggest issue is that I don’t feel I have “room” for extra drinks – I just can’t drink that much, and I’m not talking about the effects of alcohol (but that can be a factor too). I’m much larger than my wife, but she can easily drink more than me, meaning both the volume of liquid as well as the effect of alcohol.
