Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for December 24, 2018

make up your mind, Andy

Don’t press your luck too far, Andy.

HOHOHO ANDY!!!

@Number Three In Today’s funny strip , our hero Mr Andrew Capp is showing his usual brazen self , after Kenny in a festive spirit mood wrote off Andy’s loan , he promptly has the cheek to try to borrow 20 sterling which he never means to pay back:o) am I right? my avatar today has nothing to do with Christmas , its to remind me how my right thumb looked before I stupidly managed to mangle it with my step ladder , but now it has stopped hurting , how was your day? ours has been hectic with Connie baking a large dish of lazagna for tomorrow and other stuff , this evening we are expecting Alex to come over with Michelle and her two kids Gianluca and Micheala and Timmy to visit and get their presents and Yule logs , this year instead of toys we bought them sensible clothes , take care pal and have a Happy Christmas

I was accosted by somebody at a bar who was like that. I couldn’t believe my ears. He was even trying to guess my name and where I worked and where I lived, as in, “I know you.. you’re my old pal.. we worked together for years..” etc. it was sad. All he wanted was a drink and he was willing to make an ass of himself just for that drink. The bartender ran him out just as I was about to buy him one to shut him up.

“Sure. If you pay me back the money you owe me!”

Andy does like to push things doesn’t he?

I assume Kenny has the good sense to turn him down. “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.”

That’s our Andy! he is shameless. If one could see “chutzpah”, it would be Andy Capp.

I’ll repay you next year for a loan today!

Andy’s got a lot of nerve. (But not very much tact.)

Andy will definitely get a twenty.

Twenty pieces of coal in his stocking.

@Afficionado

I remember your hurt thumb saga. Glad it’s a lot better now.

I broke my toe earlier this year and it was painful as anything. However I didn’t go to hospital because broken toes can be treated at home.

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2019. Enjoy!

I didn’t realise your thumb looked like baby Jesus in a manger. Do you have religious pilgrims queuing up to see you thumb?

Kenny needs to qualify his answer with “until after the new year” or else Andy will claim Kenny said he’d never ask again,

As to the last panel, just give Andy ten — five knuckles from each hand.
