But yesterday on my way into Lidl a gentleman (beggar but not begging) was swaddled in an old blanket.

On my way out I gave him some money and he took the money but underneath the blanket he was stuffing like a dry bit of bread into his mouth.


(He was foreign) When I saw the dried bread I said to him "drink" - oh yes he nodded - I proceeded to open the top of a bottle of milk I had bought - he said "no no no". Oh said to myself - maybe he doesn't like milk - so opened a big bottle of orange - then he chased me off.

I do think it was DRINK of the alcohol kind and no I had none of that in my bag - sorry Mr Beggarman. - LOL. says myself - you cheeky so and so - no I took it with a pinch of salt. Bless him.

Zac - I don't know Father Ted - sorry.
JJ once in Edinburgh Christmas shopping ,a beggar sat with his lovely dog, it was snowing , I went and got a tin of Chappie for this beautiful animal who was clearly shivering with the cold, he threw it after me :0/

no he had no dog collar from what I could see
Or Father Jack, even. Doh!
//then he chased me off//
don't blame him, only a Château Lafite Rothschild Pauillac 2000 will do with dry bread
That doesn’t surprise me at all lol.
Jj that's why it's recommended that you never give beggars money...you'll be aiding their addiction. Buy them some food if they'll take that.
'Buy them some food if they'll take that.'

My wife did just that in Leeds a few weeks ago. He (the beggar) then ran off and tried to sell the sandwich for drug / booze money.
I tend not to give to individuals up here.. Far too many organised begging rings

that's the thing MM - like he wasn't begging - just swaddled in an oul blanket eating dried bread.

Pasta if you read the post - I went to the trouble of taking the top of the milk and orange juice but he didn't want it.
I know jj. I just wanted to emphasise don't give money.
