Yes, he was created for a children's comic. I seem to recall that Reg Smythe wasn't happy about it. The "son" was never mentioned in the newspaper strip.

I wondered if perhaps he was illegitimate and never spoken of due to the shame.

Andy Capp felt shame? lol

I only found out yesterday that Andy Capp has a son. He kept that quiet.

Those Lemon Queen sunflowers must be 10+ feet tall - I feel like a little fairy creature walking between them. Amazing to me that they were just seeds only 3 months ago.

Another lovely photo, Diane. I don't recognise the background. Oh, wait---it's blue sky!

As the years go by more and more flowers show up in my veggie beds. The poor onions started flowering to compete for my attention.

Hi, I'm Larry and this is my brother Darrel and my other brother Darrel.

True story - my husband has two brothers called Roger - one adopted, one forever fostered.

Welcome back Zesty White!

Sorry that you both have had chilly summers, maybe you will get a week or two warm weather yet when it turns to autumn and the world tilts again.
