Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for July 31, 2019

is it a good thing he’s not singing late at night where other citizens are in their beds TRYING to sleep?

Well crap. I got here too early and there’s no one to explain this comic to me.

@Number Three Today;s strip is mildly funny , our Hero Mr Andrew Capp is singing the right song at least , hope he can make it home without falling in the canal :o) my avatar is of a man killing time by shooting his bedside alarm clock which , is what I feel like doing when the clock alarm goes off just as I manage to go to sleep , how was your day? ours should be busy but not hectic I hope , have fun and thanks for caring pal.

how lucky fora ndythe cop didnt show him the way to jail!!!

“I had a little drink about an hour ago and it went right to my head”

I don’t think those are the lyrics. ;)

It’s funny how Andy can pick up these nonverbal cues so quickly in his advanced state of stupor! :D

" No matter where I roam,

Over land or sea or foam

Does the bobby know the way to San Jose?

San Jose is overrated

We used to sing this when I was about 12 or so…….thought it was so daring. Nowdays most 12 year olds have heard far worse.

If he was that tired, he’d have passed out on the pub steps.

Sometimes my mom wishes I’d forget the way home!

This link should be of a particular interest to you who are fairly new to Andy Capp.

So hoist up the John B’s sail

See how the main sail sets

Call for the Captain ashore

Let me go home, let me go home…

I wanna go home.

Didn’t they sing that song in “Jaws”?

As I said before my comment disappeared…. If he was that tired, he’d have passed out on the pub doorstep.
