Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for July 02, 2021

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny, only our HERO Mr Andrew Capp could injure himself in a darts competition by bashing a granite headed bloke and the sling he’s wearing stopped being used in the early 60’s , I would have hated Andy coming to casualty when I worked there in my early nursing career :o) my avatar is again my birthsin Leo roaring his head of because he’s happy like I am , how was your day and I like your avatar, our Finally Friday should be busy but calm I hope, I’ve already done some shopping , no more errands to run and we are both in a good mood in spite of the heatwave and this evening I’ll be having my fav nosh meanwhile i’ll stay browsing on my desk top with the A/c on ,if Connie needs me she will have to phone me :o) keep safe and thanks for caring young Lady

Never punch with your dart hand Andy!

I never thought of darts as a contact sport.

Better story, “As I drew back me arm after the throw I knocked the barmaid and a full tray of pints onto the floor and as I dived dived down I hit me elbow on a table”.

Close call….

But did you hurt your darts? Those things can get expensive. You have to get the right balance, weight, and flights. The cost can add up.

Yes, Andy. Us Grimshaws are a hard headed bunch.

I wonder if Gary “Granite Head” Grimshaw was as sporting about it?!

There are a lot of colorfully-named characters in Hartlepool

Does this make Andrew “Knuckles” Capp?

I always see Andy darts throwing as a lefty.

Darts can be a tough game.

Looks like all the TV antennas in Hartlepool are close to falling off! ;o]

That could happen in any sport, for Andy.

“How could you know that was Iron-Balls McGinty? "

It was a pleasure to visit Andy’s statue in Hartlepool today!

Your own fault, Andy.

I have no sympathy.

Hey, Affie. I have just got back from meeting my friend. Oh and I won £15 at bingo. My Auntie was with me so I shared it with her. £7.50 each. We always share. But I will never forget when I won £210 all to myself.

I am having my favourite nosh today as well. Hope you enjoy yours.

Stay safe, stay well and stay happy, pal. See you after the weekend. By the way, I had a awful headache on Tuesday which I believe was a side effect from the Pfizer vaccine. With my Hay Fever, I never get headaches.

If you think Andy got it bad, you should see Gary! (Then again, with a nickname like “Granite Head”, he might have easily withstood Andy’s blows. )
