Cheers lads for the kind words.
I can only ask you that if you see somoene begging( something i never had to do thank god) don't give them money, if you wan't to give them a cup of tea or something to eat. In my experience (though my 8 years were spent in woodland) and visiting towns everyday for something to do, i made my money by teaching survival skills.
Homelesness isn't a crime these people have a difficulty they struggle with( a simple hello can give somoene the impetus to live) i myself devoloped alcholism others have drug problems which for most is a way of coping, We don't ask for money but we ask to be treated like the humans we are.
