@Gweedo Murray

Thank you for your link to the “Mercury Dime” coin. It was interesting to read how it got it’s name.-I heard you whispering to Trigger. So I’m lazy am I? LOL.-Trigger has ate his apple now. He took his time with it because he wanted to relish every bite.-I hope those pesky rabbits don’t come near the flowers again. I always find it sad when pretty flowers die off. I love daffodils.-Can you remember when you were banned last time and the GoComics Moderator said you won’t ever be coming back? Well what happened about 6 months later? They released you. Just stay positive.-I think Susan might not realise she has been banned. Do they email you to let you know? I already know that they do when you get released. I heard that from you and Dry.-Here’s another “Only Fools & Horses” clip for you when you have time:

It’s hilarious.-The sun has been out today but at the moment it’s gloomy.-Hope you are having a nice Sunday.

You’re welcome. I have a fair amount of those. They’re pretty worn but readable.-Weeeellllll NOT to put tooo fine a point on it… -Stallions needz to keep their stren’th and good looks up !-I think it is just one rabbit. Heather was at a gathering yesterday where there were free seed packets of Marigolds available. She got some and planted them earlier. -I am positive !  They must follow some of my stuff to know my better side. First time I ever got this kind of notice. I am mulling what to say in my letter back. I could just grovel a few mumbles of gratitude, but I think we have been around enough that I don’t want to be strictly business. I still want to stop in at headquarters and meet the people. Maybe this trip…-If Susan is reading Comments she would know soon enough from the talk, as I have last week when it happened to me. I wonder if she just considered this as a time to just give it up and move on ?.. Who knows if she is reading comments even now !  I can post my E when this Kryptonite gets lifted off me. -Liked the clip !   What was being auctioned for such an exorbitant amount ?  I watched the conclusion clip. Was that the end of the series ?-Was your gloomy rainy ?  I like “cozy” days; the ones that are cloudy, warm and no wind. A certain peaceful “cozy” kinda calm.-Really warm but too windy. Put up some tomato cages and a fence for the cukes. I am going to set the sprouted tomato plants this week. If they fail… off to the nursery.-A Muted Monday coming.. Hope yours is good !

@FANOLIO.

We finally discover how Wild gets his name next week!

Hey !!  That was good !Sometimes when I throw the tenny ball, the Puppy Dog just looks over that way and than takes the slowest walk possible to get it. Done it that way yesterday. You got a sparky wit !-I agree on the top three panels (Sunday). Totally filler. Harruuummph !!!The bottom part was great and Flo had the perfect look on ’er.

Re: yesterday.Your links work just fine……. it’s mine that don’t work.

& @Gweedo..More Led Zep stuff:.http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2014/may/05/led-zeppelin-unreleased-version-whole-lotta-love-exclusive.I hope the music will play outside the UK.

In yesterday’s strip, Andy had a “senior moment”. It must have been contagious, because I had one of my own last night. I was making some manicotti, which calls for flat leaf parsley. Cilantro looks a lot like parsley if you’re not paying attention, and I evidently wasn’t. Completely ruined one of my favorite meals.

-I am finally forced to make a comment I’ve been tempted to make many times.I thought Sunday morning drives went out with the dinosaurs. Seriously, I remember going on Sunday morning drives with my grandparents and my mother when I was a small child, many, many moons ago. I would guess that gas cost about 15 cents a gallon at that time. Maybe the ‘Sunday morning drive’ fell by the wayside when there got to be too much traffic as time went by. and gas got more expensive. Whatever the cause, it simply doesn’t exist anymore. Maybe because we found out that we were polluting the planet with our excessive and unnecessary use of fossil fuel. But it’s too late now, anyway.

I’m just glad he doesn’t put his foot through the TV screen anymore!xxx

@Gweedo MurrayI really miss seeing the horses where I am. I miss Merlin’s hoof banging and Sebastian’s quick way of taking the grass from my hand so I have to watch my fingers. The girl horse is gentle.-Everybody who reads your comments knows your better side. You have a lot of fans. I think if GoComics were to hold a “Best Commenter of the Month” thing then you would win. Maybe not every time as there are loads of other awesome commenters. Me for example. Haha. Just kidding.-Susan is still commenting… Her comment numbers keep going up. I’ve noticed. Wow, I should really be an undercover agent. -In the “Only Fools & Horses” clip there was a stopwatch being auctioned off. I know because there is a clip on Youtube exactly the same as the one I sent you but it has “stopwatch” in the title. -I just find random clips of Only Fools & Horses. I never know which episodes they are from because it’s been years since I’ve watched them.-Nope… No rain. Sigh.-Have a great Monday… If that’s possible.

Happy Fifth of Mayonnaise everybody. (Personally I would prefer a fifth of Jim Beam).

@Gweedo Murray

I think the mud field at the stables is having some work done because it looks like it’s been dug up. The horses may be at a temporary stable and will be back soon… Hopefully.-There are plenty of big talkers over at Ballard Street. I went there today because it’s x_Tech’s birthday. -Not to be mean or anything but the number of Ballard Street comments makes the amount of Andy Capp comments look pathetic. I think I would probably pass out on the spot if Andy Capp were to ever beat Ballard Street. -That’s what I meant. Susan is talking into the void.-Only Fools & Horses was first broadcast in 1981. I thought it was from the 70’s…-How far is Louisville from Colorado? I think I may have asked that question before but obviously I can’t remember the answer and I can’t very well go back and check because all your comments have gone…gone…gone… Oh, It’s a bit echoey in here.-See you on the flip over side! Giddy up, Trigger.

Happy National Cartoonist Day Number 6 and all the “Cappers.”

THIS IN FROM THE BANISHED ONE, AFTER MUCH ADO, BECAUSE IN MY EMAIL IT CAME THROUGH AS GIBBERISH! LOL! Don;t forget, I am not a computer expert, but GWEEDO assures me this will work, so let’s hope so! (He channeled for me, so this is the least I can do for him, though it is a bit late!)

From Sunday

@beviekAnother one of my incisors snapped off Sunday, that leaves me with 3 healthy molars and a solitary incisor in each jaw and a lot of stumpy wrecks

Only some “stumpy wrecks” leftover and a lotta smooth road here !

This, based on a [Sunday] discussion at “Luann”. You guys are goin’ through some changes !

WELL WHAT DO YOU KNOW??? IT WORKED! IT WORKED!

Sorry bev! LOL! Good night Cappers, BEEN A LONG, LONG DAY FOR ME!
