Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for July 19, 2022

Money shot

Andy will have to play for two…two pints!

how loyal …. indeed ….

Stan Stan here’s the plan, you’re off the team and in the can.

Andy going American on us: Skills? Meh. Buys the next round? Sign him up!

@NumberThreee today’s strip Is Funny Our HERO MrAndrew Capp’s way of choosing a player is precious :o) my avatar today is a spoofof an suv formally belonging to t he Mob bening used against them keep safe and thanks for caring young Lady , how was your day? ours should be a little busy but we should cope I hope no shopping or errands to run ,just stay inside the house and keep hydrated because it’s hot outside, keep safe and thanks for caringyoung Lady

Stan never bought beers for the team!

The first to go!!

Stan comes back and says “I’ll get the rounds. And crisps”.

Is the Dart Team ale-ing? Or is it just Andy that is Ale-ing?

Beer IS a regular player as far as Andy is concerned. So Andy is being true to his word.

There is no such thing as loyalty anymore.

Stan weasels pints too?

“…for the lads.”?? That’s a good one—Capp will guzzle down every one!!

Here is an idea for Andy’s game of darts. Put a beer keg on it side on the scratch line. And throw darts while balancing on it. (Sort of like log rolling but in a Pub.)

Loyalty for Andy: You buy his ales; he’ll keep you on the team. Win/Win!

I’m with Andy on this one. Free beer on darts night is too good to pass up!

This guy speaks Andy’s language

This is one time that the promise of getting free beer made Andy do only a 180.

So Andy’s a southpaw like me? Waddaya know.

Poor Stan gets the pointed end of the stick!

You can never question Andy’s loyalty. He’s loyal to whoever’s buyin’!

I’m sure Stan will understand given the circumstances.

Andy can always find a good dart player, but free spenders are in short supply.

Not Fat Stan I assume? He’d squash our Andy flat!

Hey, Affie.

1 year ago today all the COVID restrictions had disappeared in the UK for good. It was called “Freedom Day” However COVID cases are rising again. It’s not going away. After all Flu never went away and that’s been around for over 100 years. I expect COVID to be the same.

I’ve had a lovely cool bath and will be having my favourite nosh later. Oh by the way my hair is still in the two French braids and has been for almost a week now. I’ll have to wash my hair eventually which means taking them out. That will be on Saturday.

Tomorrow I’m at my volunteering and then the carvery. If the heat is going to be anything like these past couple of days tomorrow then I’m going to have plenty of drinks with ice! I always get the Bottomless drinks at the carvery because the price stays the same whether you have 1 or 100.

Stay safe, stay well, stay cool and stay happy, pal.

Drinking alcohol while tossing sharp pointy objects just seems like a really bad idea to me.

So much for loyalty. In the next panel, Stan throws Andy through a window.

Not only is Stan off the team, he’s not eligible for the rounds of drinks.
