Why didn't you Dexter them?
Dexter St. Clair wrote:Finally I met some aggressive beggars last Sunday. I made the mistake of crossing the lights at red and got stranded on the island at the bottom of the High Street beside the Tron. "Any spare change? I'm homeless." My response, "Nope." He and his colleagues countered with a torrent of abuse. At that point I thought I'd rather risk the traffic and shot off to McChuills with their shouts ringing in my ears.
BTW they were locals, forty year old Glaswegians with their own teeth and apparently regular visitors to the barbers. Panhandlers I understand is the more accurate description.

Bus stop in Candleriggs?
