They buy it then hand it around. But many a bet would walk past a genuine homeless person an give them f**k all. I'm not talking about homeless drug users or piss heads. It's a very social drug no doubt. Lol I don't like the homeless man argument for anything, it gets thrown around a lot, especially when the topic of asylum seekers comes around. Many of the homeless are there by choice and have been offered help, what can any member of the public do? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wanted to put him in shared accommodation with drug users an piss heads. He says he would much rather stay in this local wood in the tent than shared with these kind of people. He doesn't go begging in the city centre. When walking the dogs on a weekend a see him in this area. An give him abit of cash to buy food. Proper food. He says he makes abit of money doing odd jobs. He's a nice fella. Just split up with miss after losing his job. Got made redundant. Because of his age 56 he's finding it hard to get a job too mate. It's wrong a fella that's got more years in work. But they would much rather set on foreigners welding cheap labour coming from over Europe. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds very similar to one of my relations, he went off the rails after splitting from his Mrs, ended up losing his job, turned to the drink and ended up living rough down near the river Dearne. People often saw him regularly, tried to talk him around but he ended up hard work. Summer 2022, nobody had seen him for a week or so, started getting shared around on FB, etc, his body was eventually found in the river. Obviously given the location and a couple of weeks, I imagine finding cause of death was difficult, think they tried to put it down to a heart attack, god knows.

He's got a decent set up to be fair. He gets his clothes washed by a local. His area where he's camped up is nice an tidy. But he was saying he's always been into the outdoors. He's got one of them little steel box things that you can cook on an a flask that you put wood under. If I wasn't with the miss an our youngen i could do a few month travelling doing that living off the land too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My uncle used to go see our Andy and asked him to come and live at his until he got himself right when he went down and saw him, he wouldn't have it. What more can one do? I don't buy that he had a heart attack, what's the odds of having a clutcher and ending up in the river, very odd to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think he'd been in the river for one or two weeks when they found him so you can imagine what his body was like, how they can determine cause of death I don't know.
