Hi Sweetgirl He has had places to live before from charity but he likes to be free some of the homeless prefer this they have there personal reasons for this he does have problems with alcohol It's nice of you to think you would take a stranger into your home personally I could not do this it may sound harsh to you I give money to homeless charity who have the expertise on the homeless Sadly there have been to many stories of people taking in homeless with tragic ending I have given him food, bedding and chatted to him lots of times and he had many friends around the area hopefully he's ok You have a one heart so never change Gaynor

I been reading lots of classics I downloaded Oodles Books it's all free took a while to get used to not having actual book but so much choice in Oodles Gaynor

Hi Monica That's so kind of you I have not visited him since the car crash everything all up in the air for me at the moment hopefully I can see him next week. He has got some friends who built his little place and I hope he has managed to stay off the alcohol he was 6 days without it when I saw him. Your very kind to help as long as he is warm,dry and has some food that's all we can do Thanks again Gaynor

What a terrible thing to happen to your poor mother I hope they catch the nasty piece of work he is My heart goes out to you and your family Gaynor

Hi I will ask him I did say about the 3 weeks they do, he probably knows about all these things as he's been on the streets many years Thanks for that though Gaynor

He's been on Street for a long time was in shelter accommodation but felt trapped for personal reasons I was going down to see him again but my hubby had car crash just as we left him found out it's a right off Will try and see him soon as do not live far away and will take him food Christmas day which is the worst of days to be alone Hope this helps you Gaynor

Hi I took him a duvet on Saturday, sadly hubby crashed car someone stopped and we went into him 2 minutes after leaving the gentleman so I have only just given him his frying pan and some food I have offered to do washing for him I put it all on the other thread but have had long chat with him Great your helping Gaynor

Thank you for that I gave him a duvet Saturday and took frying pan which he needed and some food

Hi Yes gentleman has no legs he been on the streets along time I have emailed Sally army to see what I can do other than keep eye on him he has been in hostels before but did not like them Gaynor

Yes Insurance will be ok but your right about homeless and help this man lost his legs through doing tour of duties Some years ago I had a friend who was in a children's home she feared for her 16th birthday as you were thrown out then with no help my mother took her in but only room for her to sleep on sofa but did what we could sadly due to the abuse she suffered she committed suicide I will never forget her fearing her 16th birthday being thrown out at least now they are not thrown out until they are 18 and get help

Hi All I went to see the gentleman gave him a duvet I had he's a very polite man had chat he's ok just need a frying pan so going to get one for him Coming out of the parking were vets are someone stop my hubby's car smashed into it everyone ok except hubby's car typical me trying to help and that happens never mind that's life I suppose Gaynor

Hi Is he in the grounds of the pub as I will see if I can do anything for him. Thanks Gaynor

Champ Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > So...did Gaynor get the job? Hi Champ No after the email asking me my age, absolutely no response from shop Why are some people doing virtual arguments, I never understand this in life now that's showing my age if I can not say anything to someone face why bother Gaynor

Hey no worries think maybe I was being a bit sensitive with the whole employer thing at the end of the day it's the employer progative Thanks though Gaynor

Thanks for getting back to the subject, if I could have presented myself I would have thought nothing of it I lucky my hubby can take care of me no extras but at the end of the day as long as you have a roof over your head food in belly and lekky everything else is a bonus Gaynor

There is a book club if that interests you I am sure all will be fine with you it's hard leaving friends behind did years ago working was the best way Take care Gaynor

Thank you for all your comments l think I was just annoyed with the fact that after saying I was 53 I never got the chance to send CV and did not even get a email saying sorry for your loss after having my own business for 25years I personally think this is just plain bad manners I have worked all my life no time off ever just felt like working more locally instead of the commute used to long hours up town and very late nights nothing is too much for me At the end of the day it's the employer's preogative Many thanks Gaynor
