Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for April 23, 2017

good one, Chalkie

You’d have to go a lot farther back than that.

Sounds like a job for carbon dating!

Oye Good one Chalkie! What evidence could they possibly find that could point to Andy EVER buying a round? A Guinness bottle cap?

They’re archaelogists, Chalkie. They deal in history, not mythology!

Hurrah! The return of Time Team!

What might they find in Hartlepool? Perhaps artifacts from Doggerland?

I agree that this is a funny gag, since so few people call Andy out on his misdeeds… but come on… this is still just a 3-panel daily strip (panels 3, 5, and 6 or panels 4, 5, and 6) stretched out to a sunday strip with useless filler panels. Lazy and cynical. I expect more from “Andy Capp” and “B.C.” (the other strip that does this) because they’re among my favorite strips—and they’ve been around longer than most.

good one

Most excellent one.

lol

Even rarer. An old job application form.

Or his very first application form for the dole.

When was your email account hacked?

My Sunday was nice as usual, I sat out in the back garden and played Candy Crush on my phone. I’m on Level 441 now. My cousin says I need to get out more. Haha.

Pesky work always gets in the way of family visits. Although with me working in an office nothing gets in the way. I still have time for GoComics and other things I like to do.

On 1st May, I am off work because it’s a public holiday.

Saw a garter snake when I was out walking earlier today. Moved it out of the road do it wouldn’t get run over.

Mission Impossible.
