In the Club House

There was an old man named Andy Cap
who was a golf loving kind of chap
forgot to tee off
his partner did scoff
when the bar maid remained on his lap.

Just tore up an old flooring the other day and it was underlayed with old newspaper's. There was Andy Capp in 1969. :) My Dad got a hoot out of it. Something about dating his mother in law. :) Gotta stay away from that booze Andy. :)

Golf was never so witty and I think the scoffer must have been green with jealousy. The bird's eye view is so vivid fro here. Loved the chuckle dear friend! Love, Lizzie
