Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for December 10, 2020

of course the pigeons

@Number Three Today’s strip is slightly funny and a repeat ,our HERO Mr Andrew Capp leaving home with an empty suitcase didn’t bother Flo she just brought him his pigeons , but Andy always comes back :o) my avatar is a spoof of an airline pilot not being able to fly because his mummy grounded him, which reminds me of the time when Arthur was 2 years old and we were going on a holiday in Greece , an airport security person got me off the plane which was already taxying to take off , when I went in front of his boss to see why , he said that there was a Maltese criminal named Tony Grech who was a flight risk , I tore him a strip of al the Maltese invectives I knew , meanwhile poor Connie was crying on the plane , but we got apolgies and cash compensation , we then ended having a wonderful holiday in Athens , I have movies of our holiday with a shot of Arthur peeking under the skirt of the a Greek soldier with his uniform :o) how was your day? ours should be very busy as our Thursdays usually are + decorating the whole house for Christmas , keep safe and thanks for caring pal

Glad you told him what’s what! I did that to a copper who didn’t like my pro Clinton bumper sticker.

After a discussion of political differences he let me off without a ticket because he actually had an open mind about politics. Not likely now!

Toss Andy keep the Pigeons some of those Racing Pigeons are worth big money ( at least enough to pay his bar tab ) .

Lock the door so he can’t get back in.

She should have done this years ago and no coming back!

Where is it does he “plan on going” when he tries to bluff poor Flo? I can’t think of a shabbier example of “the undeserving poor” than Mr. Capp.

Fry them, Flo. Fricassee. Bake. Rotisserie.

This would be so awesome of it was true. The bum should have been kicked out 50 years ago.

Good riddance….

Like 1960s folk singer Tom Rush, Brudder Capp gets the urge for goin’, but he never seems to go!

Somebody has to feed the roof rats.

So much for his ploy to come back for the pigeons.

she gave him the bird. now dont let the door hit you capp.

Now, Toodle Pip!

@Afficionado

Wow, I don’t think you’ve ever told us that story before! I’m so glad everything turned out all right and you were compensated for it. Sounds horrific.

I wonder what became of that other Tony Grech?

An ex colleague went to Crete before. Would love to visit Greece. In fact I’d love to visit anywhere. I’m easily pleased.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal. I’ve just come from the beach (I didn’t actually go on the beach but I walked down the promenade) and it was absolutely freezing. But I needed to get out.

Love to Bella.

Doesn’t Flo know that when she sends the homing pigeons packing, they will fly right back home? (’Course, they make far less of a mess than Andy does, and have many more admirable qualities……..)

There seems to be a lot of Andy Hate here today. Too bad, I kind of identify with him.

Unfortunately for Flo, Andy and his pigeons will be back.
