Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for September 04, 2013

Yes, verrrrryyy late

In the Capp household, bingo is a contact sport…

If that’s Chalkie, he’d rather be down at the pub with Andy… Bingo is known popularly where I live as “Housie” or “Tombola”.

Well, the comics were late and this certainly wasn’t worth the wait.

Malta’s an Isle; should be a Harpoon on e-bay. . . . .if You really want to pursue the Whaling aspect.

Wow, I’m never this far up the list of comments (since I’m not allowed to stay up ’til rollover………), but this boring episode today leaves me with nothing to say about it! What a waste of a rare chance to be up this high! Btw did anybody find out why all the comics were so late to change over? Sunspots, solar flares, hacking, or the ever-popular “these things happen” ?

I don’t think we’ve ever actually seen Flo & Rube at the bingo parlour.

Feel sorry for the caller.

I was on a nostalgia site on Pinterest and saw an old Andy Capp comic book, I’d pay for that!

…….he’s not happy in his work" and G. M. & G. obviously aren’t either.

May your “Tootsday” be good too !

I thought your line was an “Englishism” that I was simply not getting. No one in particular is interested in our house… that I know of. -I am on the low end of the photom pole, pardon the expression. I have dabbled with the program in the past but mainly like doing a best natural light shots and would mostly use the effects for fun stuff anyway. The weather is splendid and even so overnight. .And now some good news !

While doing fitness this morning I spotted Eddy on the flatstone in front of his “house”. Have seen him again on the building side where I keep all manner of odd ends. He(?) is bigger and so far, isn’t letting me get too close. I hope to re-establish contact. I hope to see the other one too. If that one is still around I think I will call it Ronnie. He appeared to be the youngest and most shy. My own Brother Ron is the youngest of us. He can be shy until he becomes “boldly outspoken” on something or another.

That line actually was ‘Englishism’ I was using. I forget that there are a lot of Americans on here who don’t always understand Britspeak. I sometimes struggle with understanding American terms and phrases as most people would who have lived in England all their lives.-I don’t use Photoshop. That’s a bit too complicated for me! I use an online photo editing site called ‘FotoFlexer’

Link

It’s an advanced site but obviously not as advanced as Photoshop.-That is great news! It’s cute that you are giving the rabbits names. Especially naming one of them after your younger brother. I’m outspoken on GoComics (as you all have noticed) and sometimes in real life when I’m around family and such but any other times I just keep myself to myself. -I hope you are doing great and that your Wednesday is bright and sweet.

Enjoy yer Holiday highly!

This is what I get when I try to open your link:

Looks like you’ve discovered uncharted territory! – 404

שנה טובה to you !

Wondrous Wednesday Hugs ((((((( CAPPERS ! )))))))

@Great Gweedos Ghost

Jackie is moonlighting?? (Or does he have a twin?)

I won’t be posting tomorrow or Friday as it is Rosh Hashanah.L’shanah tovah.^^So you’re Jewish then, cool

Linguist,That trade almost happened! The Sox and Yanks were going to trade Ted Williams for Joe DiMaggio since both would theoretically hit better in the other park (right vs. left). Tom Yawkey thought better and asked for that “little outfielder” as well (Yogi Berra). Good thing, DiMaggio retired in 1951 and Williams played until 1960.

@ Number 3See todays Lola…lol…

British Bingo Rhyming Calls

Thanks for trying to share, but just FYI, when I click the link, it just says it can’t be found…

.Today’s strip is so-so. Good thing we got Clowns & Jugglers here to dish up th’ goodstuff !I almost followed “someone’s” link, but for the tart intro… .afficionado said, about 10 baffled titles ago

@Great Qwee-dough’s GhostI wonder why they keep calling them goat-comics?

Besides being a bit of fun, afficio…….. have you ever felt the sting of Banishment !?That kinda thing can make a ‘main’ get mean ! …. if ya know whut ah mean !.Happy Rosh, Susan !  Andy’s bound to get into deeper mischief without your watchful eye around to keep him in check. Whut’m I sayin’ ?!  This sodden crew wont let Andy just be himself. It’s like he’s under a 24 hour babysitter watch..Thank you, Three !I have only used the “onboard” photo stuff myself. I popped over to look at the site, just the same.-The fact that we don’t always "unna stan’ " one another means we get educated from the explanation. Yeah, can’t help givin’ the guys names. “Eddy”, could even be a girl for all I know, has a couple of black stripes along his (her?) neck. Crunchy, who I pyred today along with some pincushion cactuses that I pulled around the yard, was more stocky and a bit larger than the others. “Ronnie” was, to my eye, the most diminutive. No sign of him(?) yet. Haven’t seen anyone today, so far.-My Wed. is going good and I don’t think it will get hot (I hope) like yesterday. One hundred (F) is a bit much. May your Wednesday be a sunny and warm one, over there in Old Blightey..Good, warm thoughts still going out to Number Six !!!

I haven’t played Bingo in more years than I can count, but isn’t the caller supposed to be saying something like “B-24, N-32 … etc”?

That demonstrates how little I know about that game.

Thank Zeus, Apollo, Thor, Odin, Daffy Duck, and anybody else running things in these treacherous modern times for the Capper Cappers! Especially, in this instance, for Mikeyj, who once again is giving cartooning lessons to the so-called professionals who insist on foisting off these ersatz Andys upon a world that deserves far better!

He’s not happy, but he is entertaining with his rhymes. Good Evening CAPPERS. Anyone see SIX yet? Or have I missed his comment? I haven’t read everything yet.

So am I. L’Shanah Tovah, Mikeyj!^^I’m not Jewish, myself, but, I admire the resolve of the Jewish people

Too many comments to follow for me, so a shout out to Fellow CAPPERS and artists. Always a pleasure to see the older strips.

GOOD NIGHT CAPPERS!

Why on earth would you assume the Prof has a friend.
