dv1 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Anyone have the pleasure of being asked for cash by the male and female drunks outside Londis this evening - I watched them for a while and they were fairly intimidating to anyone who passed them by and even threatened one guy. They were fairly well dressed and quite young, but generally a pain in the a**e. They also worked their way up and down the outside tables of The PalmerstonNo doubt someone will be on saying that they are just trying to scrape a living, but for me, they should have been moved on.Discuss.

HonaloochieB Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Give them money. It's the only language they understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthew123 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 What we need is a vigilante squad monitoring for these diabolical incidents on the EDF - who can arrive in a specially commissioned EDF Fire Truck to hose these types off our streets back to where they come from!

matthew123 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Thought I'd tag it on this thread rather creating another one... but same kinda thingJust had to dash down Lordship Lane and there is a toddler helping a woman sell copies of the Big Issue.. the poor kid is tucked up in it's pushchair on the edge of the curb at the mercy of the road. I think that is a hell of a lot more shocking than aggressive beggars. I can just about understand the woman being outside Somerfield trying to make some money but surely a young child should not be exposed to this act.

It's the only pushchair suitable for the modern, urban, homeless environment?Shocking that the Big Issue vendor doesn't cough up for some decent private childcare - what on earth is she thinking?!

Mick Mac Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Horsebox. I have always wanted a Bugaboo. I have always thought that it was missing from my life. So my wife is now pregnant. People ask me if I want a boy or a girl. I say all I wanted was a Bugaboo. Can't be cool in ED without one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
