Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for November 27, 2012

Hey Eldo, Flo and I have lost a few since then…just sayin….

You mean 5 stone 7. :)

Anyway, it was Flo who carried Andy over the threshold, on their wedding night. She had to, he was sloshed, you know? :)

Hmmm carrying Flo, heading for the bedrooms upstairs…… SO, this is how Buster comes onto the scene ;)

I posted this rather late yesterday, so, I’m posting it earlier for those who may have missed it, and yes, I wrote and drew it:

Is that “lub” handles? Mine have all merged into one.

Flo’s like old aunt Mahetabelle. She’s gone up a bit in tonnage !But then, haven’t we all. Long gone is the 28 inch waist from my Army days. I now have Dunlaps disease – my belly done laps over my belt.

heck, he could just take her thru the chunnel and over to France for a weekend….wouldnt hurt him and would surely be a bright spot for Florrie…and if a stone is 10 lbs, then I have lost 3 of them over the last couple of years…had to buy new clothes and everything…I absolutely hate shopping so, my closet has thinned out considerably!

@Linquistok then, give em back!…lol…nahh, I like being smaller…just dont want to lose anymore…I used to weigh 145..now, 109…

POGO December 10, 1949

As far as carrying my bride, the BOSS LADY, over the threshhold these days, well, the sprit is willing but the flesh is weak.

Poor Florrie…

Andy is such a cheeky little so and so.

LOL xxx

Not with YOU carrying her, Andy!

Age and weight can be touchy subjects. can’t they!

I think the film is “you” safe. It is a good story. I grabbed that picture off some site to illustrate the day here. I hear it’s going to be sunny tomorrow and near 60F the rest of the week. Thank you for your tasty complements.

Anytime!

I hope it is Sunny for you tomorrow or now. Thank you again for the info on the film.

Does that mean Florrie couldn’t darn Andy’s socks?

Maybe she’s 3-4 stone heavier now!

16 ounces in a pound here, too. 20 fluid ounces in a pint. (I got your original reference to lubs – I was just being silly.)

Congratulations! The bike riding helps huh?

I left you a comment above…

It’s underneath afficionado’s comment.

Hope you’re good!

umm… I just go over it with the largest brush while viewing at the highest magnification and redo any pixel groups that aren’t even

It looks like the magic has gone out that marriage!

The back of Andy’s toothbrush looks great ! I like how it has a sort of corona, either for artistic effect or to show how the outer edge wears from bumping against your teeth. Others comments made me go back and take another look. Your coloring scheme looks good too.^^the corona on the toothbrush was a quirk of the paint program, but, I kept it… Er…I mean, that was all skill! yeah!Getting the colouring right with that kind of program is relatively easy, cause, if you don’t like it, you can click your mouse, and try new colour schemes to your heart’s content, until you find the right one…. Er…I mean, that was all skill! yeah!

Too silly….no such thing for an adult.

I am so proud of you pet – keep up the good work!

@Eldo, Mikey, and No.6I heard of a new technique where you draw using pencils, which are easy to correct by using things called erasers. Then they can then be inked and colored, using crayons or other devices.

…actually, i remember a strip where Florrie is running out in the evening to her Ladies Sewing Circle, and Andy tries to give her some socks to darn, but she escapes without them, commenting to the reader that, at the sewing circle, “more husbands are darned than socks”… maybe one of the more clever members of the andy capp/gocomics commenters can locate it…

This calls for a hand truck.

…you can never go back!

ummm… I just pick colours, and use them

You Capp replicator guys are getting to where you’ll need one of these.^^I’d love one… maybe I can hint for Xmas time ;)
