Fred Basset by Alex Graham for January 25, 2023

You smooth operator, Fred!

You are really strutting your stuff Fred!

And if that nasty gang shows up you’ll protect the ladies. Right Fred ?

Ladies, not girls.

Oh you’re living the life aren’t you Fred? And one of your ladies is the kitty! (who is yet unnamed)

You old smoothly you!

Remember Fred, don’t appear to be favouring one or the other. It could be trouble for you.

Nice!

As I’ve just mentioned on Andy Capp, tonight is Burns Night in Scotland and is celebrated by Scots around the world including Scots here in England. I hope that Jock has a very good Burns Night.

Fred, you handsome boy! Keep your ladies safe today.

Fred, you dawg, you.

I find it ‘refreshing’ that Fred’s female dog friends are tolerant of Fred’s cat friend ! ! !

Kitt will protect Fred and his girlfriends

Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more.

you’re just a dog about town, Fred!

I guess it can be fun, being the only male in a house full of females.

Purrcia certainly gets along well with the doggies

‘Bout time we had some women in here! Whoa, Purrcia is bigger than a cocker spaniel!

It’s a good thing there’s plenty of Fred to go around!

Seeking help from someone with a better memory than mine. I believe the poodle is Fifi, but I have forgotten the name of the other dog, the black one in front. Is it something like Jenna? Thanks in advance!

Fred is a better man than I, I can barely handle one at a time.

The most charming thing about this situation is that we know we can count on Fred to be a true gentleman.
