If he was hanging about with five other friends it would be a miracle.

I went to town on Tuesday, street market day and was a little shocked what I saw there ! huge queues outside Ramsdens was the first sight I saw 80% of these were Eastern Europeans ? didn’t understand what was happening ,then seemed to move from there to cash shop, because somebody said they had run out of money ? There were also huge queues outside Pawn Brokers on corner, again mainly Roma, on top of that town was full of beggars and gangs of young adults looking for opportunities ? working the streets, using mobiles to inform each other, it really was horrible with lots and lots of very poor people on Effingham St !! No sign of any police or council officials to keep order, it was like a lawless society ? Dodge (y) City springs to mind !

Yep, people were being thrown out of saloons, hanging rustlers from trees, robbing banks and shooting passers-by from upstairs windows. Where the hell is the Sheriff when you want him?

I think this is also because people don’t want to put it into an account that is overdrawn or where someone else in the family has access.

The winners are the pawn brokers

Clearly there are genuine people struggling then there’s the scrounge’s but ffs reading some comments on here makes me realise why the world is ****ed up

Wait until they get the other money £400, more in some cases, I might get Xmas decorations out for them.

Grist that’s just about any tradesperson. Any work I’ve had done in my home, I never paid the full amount as I pay £ notes. No VAT, I’m a winner tradesperson is a winner, that’s how life is.

They quote a price, I discount the VAT off and we come to an agreement.
