[BIG MAL]

Is the comic strip still published anywhere or did it loose its relevance in this day and age?
What other little things have disappeared over the years?

It's in the Daily Mirror and the Hartlepool Mail, each day.
It's all a bit PC these days, though.
No tab hanging out of his mouth these days, nor does he and Flo windmill the daylights out of each other.

The Andy Capp statue, stands next to the Harbour of Refuge, pub (The Pot House) on Hartlepool Headland, in tribute to Hartlepool born Reg Smythe, who created the Andy Capp strip.

Plenty of visitors to the Headland have their photo's taken stood next to the statue.

Reg lived just round the corner from me when I was growing up. Couldn't see his bungalow mind as it was behind all the other houses with a drive in-between them to get to it.
Along with Janick Gers (who has been seen at many a Pools match) Hatlepools most famous person.

Andy Capp and Bobby Thompson are cut from the same cloth and even though they are funny, they are oppressed by time

One of the most random cameos on tv.

One of the most random cameos on tv.

Remember stopping at a gas station in Arizona and the store had a big display of 'Andy Capp' branded crisps/snacks with character on the packets, thought that was random too.

Men being head of the household.
News of the world.

I used to get the Mirror for donkey's years, never missed Andy. He reminds me of a now banned poster from here. Forget his name. Bit of a twat.
