Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for February 25, 2017

I wonder if Chalkie came home with a bandaged nose.

He wasn’t altering the score, it was just alternative facts

Aye K of L Yet another esCappade!

Andy knows he has to win. It’s the only hope he has of ever paying off his bar tab.

Don’t those steps look pretty steep for somebody as short as Andy?

I don’t seem to understand this strip. Does this mean that only Andy got a beating and not Chalkie? Despite Chalkie actually doing Andy’s dirty work for him?

Bit confused here.

Well done for standing up for your woman! Men can be such pigs. And… Before I get accused of being a man-hater. We women can be such female dogs.

I don’t think I’ve ever been to a carnival. Bit too crowded and noisy for my liking. Not that I’m agoraphobic but busy places with lots of people can lead to fights and God knows what else. In almost every huge event there are always some idiots being carted away by police.

I have looked you up on Facebook but there are loads of Anthony Grech’s in the world. There is one in Melbourne and I saw somebody who looks like you and it says they joined in November 2016 but I think you joined sooner than that.

I bet Chalkie got off without a scratch.

I’ve never actually seen anyone with an injured nose that is wrapped like that. It’s one of those “only in comics” tropes.
