Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for March 11, 2021

The next job centre personnel who takes Andy for the next forty years is going to live the same nightmare.

Hey, Andy is their best customer. I’m sure he’s on a first-name basis with them all.

@Number Three Today’ strip IS funny our HERO Mr Andrew Capp has to go to the Job Centre or else Andy can’t collect the dole , the old clerk’s highlight of his retirement is not having to see the lazy git anymore :o) my avatar again is my birth sign Leo roaring his head off because he is happy like I am ,how was your day? our Thursday should be very busy as usual but we should cope I hope , all the plumbing is connected and the contractor won’t be coming before Monday , we both are in a good mood and we don’t need to go shopping this morning keep safe and thanks for caring young Lady

Maybe give Andy a job at the job center? He knows every excuse, he knows every dodge and he has already been on the dole so long, for a few more bucks he would work with you not against you!

Hey, Andy kept him on the job for forty years helping him to find a job.

Maybe you and Andy can work together and grade all the local Pubs. You know, their good points and their bad ones too. I’m sure Andy would have a lot of local knowledge on that subject.

Hmmmmm !!!! This guy sure knows Andy Capp!!!

We hope you don’t die of boredom.

I was never one who “loved” his jobs, but always derived a substantial degree of satisfaction in doing the work — except for staff meetings. After piling up 40+ years, I retired. One of the questions some folks have since put to me was, “Do you miss work?”. My stock reply has always been, “I missed it for the 15 seconds it took for the door to close behind me on the way out after my last day.”

I guess Andy’s going voluntarily to the Centre under threat of somehing or someone.

He won’t miss him but he’ll certainly never forget him!

Glad to hear things are getting closer to being finished.

I have been pouring through a cruise brochure that came in the post. There is an 80 day “Around The World” cruise and some of the places it visits are Egypt, San Francisco and Singapore. I have always wanted to visit Egypt. Maybe one day, I will. Fingers crossed! I’d love to visit everywhere.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal. The wind is really strong here and after I have my curry for dinner, it’ll be windy inside as well…… If you get my drift.

Good luck to the next sucker trying to get Andy a job. They’ll need it!
