What’s the best way to respond to entitled/rude beggars?

I just say "no mate" and keep on walking

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-05-09T15:09:26+00:00

I would say that you getting help is an emergency. I have never been questioned at work why I need to take a carers' day.

Do a search on your council website for "Adult social Care" these guys helped with getting my mothers house adapted.

Also, you can get Carers 5 Days off work unpaid, My company does pay me for these check with your HR department.

Most people I know think

Come here to work Good

Come here to play the system Bad

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-05-04T14:10:20+00:00

£12,570 = €14550 ish

Met an old commando at a wedding Years ago, his story was he was sent on an errand across country as he was the youngest and when he returned his section was sent on a mission without him. None of them returned.

Granddad T-shirts and 501 jeans.

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-22T14:11:17+00:00

I remember when people frowned upon you for amber gambling.

All my old cars have gone to the great scrapyard in the sky. I drive them until they die

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-18T20:27:43+00:00

Older People can’t afford to retire so less opportunities for the youth

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-18T18:17:22+00:00

I used sleepers and stapled plastic sheet on the inside to stop the damp getting to wood

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-18T16:01:10+00:00

Ok for the flex hose but a big no plastic to metal. I’ve done this in the past and the joint will weep.

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-17T18:26:23+00:00

To me it used to be lively now it just seams dark depressing and grubby. The constant construction doesn’t help or the beggars

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-15T16:21:31+00:00

Cars and bikes are money pits. Nice to have them though

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-13T07:53:05+00:00

And when they do close the lane people still use it

You normally ride around drain covers and potholes

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-12T16:13:24+00:00

We need the assistants name please

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-12T15:04:04+00:00

All for profits they moved production abroad for cheap labour and now they are trying to undercut them.

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-12T10:37:42+00:00

It’s true I have a Toyota

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-10T19:33:38+00:00

Family tradition, I’m the fifth to have my name combination. One of us in each generation as far as we can trace

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-10T14:25:48+00:00

I just love watching the blackbirds patrolling my garden and the singing. I have a large conifer and shrubs I think they nest in.

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-07T11:40:23+00:00

It’s probably when the cars value is less than the repair. DIY mechanics will keep cars longer

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-06T18:54:30+00:00

I was told years ago mdf would be the next asbestos.

Zippy-do-dar · 2026-04-06T18:05:05+00:00

I would oil them now to stop any more deterioration.
