Andy is such a gentleman! It’s hard to believe the people of England haven’t drafted him to be the Prime Minister. I bet Flo wants to shave his butt with a chain saw!
Andy wants to put a bet on this Sunday’s FIRST
preseason football game… Bengals @ Cowboys.
5 PM PST on NBC. I took the Bengals - 2
and the Over 32.5. Vegas heavens waiting room…
Nobody from the old manual working classes (or indeed the shirking classes) gets to be a Labour MP any more. Once upon a time it was possible for a builder or a brickie or a shipbuilder or a coal miner or a guy in the car factory to make it in politics.
Tony Blair, may his name be ever spat upon, a product of a posh public school and law school, saw to it that the Labour benches were stuffed with people in suits and the right sort of professional jobs from the right backgrounds who were People Like Us. As a result his party lost touch with its working-class roots - in fact, Blair pulled them up - and did bugger all for ordinary British people. They lost touch badly, people from the Andy Capp end of society (even the Chalkies, the majority who prefer to work for a living) either didn’t vote at all or voted for other parties.
And this let the current ConDem (ned) right-wingers back in… yuo know where you are with Tories and Republicans, you know they’re out to screw you and enrich themselves at your expense.
You just don’t expect it from Labour, the supposedly people’s party…
andy with a cell phone? in the old days the capps were so broke they didn’t even have a land line. A lot of the jokes back then were about thier poverty. Another way things have changed.

Andy is such a gentleman. Always thinking about Flo while he works to put food, er beer, on the table.

Try to keep the noise down Flo, the man is working!
It is important for the bookie to get Andy’s bets down correctly. This could be life changing for the both of you.
If this pays off, Andy will buy you an American made lawn mower that you will not have to push backwards.

Good thing it’s not a power mower with all that noise.
Shouldn’t the grass catcher be in the back?
