Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for December 15, 2022

Andy going to the job centre is always a nightmare.

har har har – now to the real joke please.

And they say that people at these places don’t have any sense of humor.

When you start dreaming about your work it may be time to switch jobs. Especially when your job is hopeless, like trying to get Andy to get a job.

@Number three Today’s strip is funny the way the job centre guy Howls with laughter in his sleep about our Hero Mr Andrew Capp getting a job is classical ;o) my avatar is picture of how men percieve themselves to be handsome as Braddpitt when actually they look as goofy asMr Bean, this happens to me when I look in a mirror and see an old 78 year old guy looking at me, how was your day? ours should be quite busy but we will cope I hope , we both are in a good mood with no shopping to do or errands to run just stay inside the house and keep hydrated and wait till this evening when the greengrocer van comes up our street , keep safe and thanks for cariing still young at 30 young lady

So much for the Job Cemtre instead of helping Andy find his dream job the guy has a job dream!

How is the clerk in front of the glass??

Andy would just as soon avoid the Job Centre altogether. On the off chance that he may find a job.

Today is my fifty-sixth birthday and I have been reading Andy Capp since 1974.

Why is the bureaucrat in front of the ‘glass panels’? The joke itself was pretty good though.

Andy’s dreams of a job are always nightmares.

Dreaming of Andy working is like visiting "Never"land.

And tonight you will be screaming: you dream he took a job working for you!

Maniacal laughter.

Andy was dreaming about sleeping.

I would be laughing too, if my r Capp was a working stiff!

I’ve had my share of funny dreams but they were more like “WTF” funny. I honestly need to keep a dream diary. Some of them are eccentric.

Hey, Affie.

I’m 28 tomorrow! Eeek.

I have decided to go to bingo for my birthday. Last time I went on my birthday was 2018 and I didn’t win anything. I’m not sure if I told you but when I go to the bingo now, I order a lovely American style jumbo hot dog and chips (fries) after the first half of the Main Event. It’s absolutely gorgeous. When I ordered it the last time the lady behind the counter told me it wasn’t their usual brand of hot dogs but I insisted it was fine and that I’ll try it. And I was right to do so. It was still delicious! I really appreciated her telling me before I handed my money over though.

When I’m at the carvery next week, I won’t be ordering dessert. Hear me out! The reason for that is because my Mum has made me a chocolate fudge cake for my birthday and I made a deal with her ages ago that if we have any chocolate fudge cake at home the same time I’m due to go the carvery then I won’t order dessert from there. I’ll literally be having some when I get home. It’s going to feel strange but it will cost me less which is good since I won’t be getting £10 off this time.

Stay safe, stay well, stay warm and stay happy, pal. I had a great night’s sleep in my new bed.

A dream to some. A nightmare to others!

More lke a nightmare, if you ask me!!!

That would be a pretty funny thing to dream about — but then it could turn into a nightmare, when he sees what happens when Andy reports for his first day of work.

If Andy had that dream, he’d wake up screaming!

Hence the sarcastic expression “Only in your dreams!”
