Do You Give To Beggars?

Gave one 50p today.

 

It will obviously go towards a can of Zepplin....but so what,we all have our vices.

 

Told my wife when I got in and she kicked off with the old 'fuck em' malarkey.

 

So I ask....

 

Do you lot give Beggars anything??

Occasionally but not the Romanian pikey types. As often as not though its buying a brew or a butty. Them sat with a fag and a can of ale can fuck off too.

Pretty much this

 

I realised the other day I was xenophobic with beggars

 

It surprised me

dont go in to bolton so no

And a dog. Is it supposed to create extra sympathy?

I think there's beggars in other biggish towns & cities too.

A girl begger in Manchester once give me 50p when i was on the way to work, mind, she was raking it in when i got talking to her with her pet dog beside her.

Only you have stories like this Leigh

 

"Have you got any spare change?", "no I need it all".

As they're rescue dogs its beneficial for both parties.

It gives both the homeless person and the dog a companion. Stops the homeless bloke from going completely doolally and gives them something to live for.

Dogs not only attract people to donate but deter people from attacking the homeless person.

 

As with Smiffs me and the missus often get them a brew and a sausage roll especially when its bloody freezing like at the moment.

Balls to them, go get a job or go home, and the bloody dog eat it when you get hungry.

IIs a no from me.

I don't think that many of them have one. This may possibly be why they're begging.

You can be a right fucking nob at times.

 

Ask yourself why someone with a house would choose to sit in a puddle of piss getting hypothermia for the chance of earning a fiver a day.

 

Dick.

Now and again if the seem a likeable sort

 

Usually 50p or a quid

 

Once gave one a fiver, no idea why. just seemed like the right think to do at the time.

See, have you noticed how diplomatic I am these days :D

Bollocks to them, every one can get help, they choose not to, and you 2 abusive smart arses can kiss my nads.

When i was younger and going to away games on the train to London village, i had never seen people begging on the streets before, dont get me wrong, i had seen tramps before on country lanes, but it's the amount you see all over the place now. You cant have a cig outside a pub without some stranger walking past asking for one off you.

My point, all over the place, and the genuine ones are all grouped with the snakes.

Only offer to buy them food. That's if I'm convinced they're on the bones of their arse and not 'professional' beggars.

 

Most take up the offer and very often ask 'Can I have a drink too?' (can of coke or whatever - not alcohol)

In London in the 70s, i used to buy anybody what looked on death's door a coffee or give them some loose change, the girl i remarked about before in Manchester was doing it for a scam, and making a good living out of it. I think she chucked me a 50p to keep my gob shut.

I think its now time I should once again tell you all the story about my two mates that paid a bald lady beggar to suck em off down a side alley next to Burger Dome on Talbot Road.

 

One of em pulled her wooly kangol hat off in sheer excitement to reveal her scabby bald head.

 

 

Lovely stuff.

I help alot of african projects, thats the way to go for me.

That could be a new fetish, just trying to think up a name for it.
