QuotePicture the scene...
Bristol Temple Meads station, wino-smack head approaches and says, Mate, Im short of my train fare home, can you give us a quid so I can get myself to Weston Super-Mare?
I oblige.
Next day, same ned approaches and says, Mate, Im short of my train fare home, can you give us a quid so I can get myself to Weston Super-Mare?
All said within ear shot of the British Transport Police officer standing near us. (BTP arent real old bill, they just ride around the country listening to football fans singing songs).
So, following yesterdays donation I am starting to smell a rat and I ask the smack head, How much is the fare? he replies with something along the lines of a fiver and I only need a pound - clearly, hes trying to con me. One, Bristol Temple Meads is a sh*thole of a station and you wouldnt want to wait there even if you were skint, two, you wouldnt make the same mistake twice, if you ran out of money yesterday, you wouldnt get a train to Bristol the following day and three - I had huge doubts about his other four-quid.
Anyway....... Ive piped up with, tell ya what, you give me your four quid and Ill go and buy your ticket!
Copper start to snigger. Smack head bloke looks confused.
Smack head mumbles, I might need more than a quid actually - I replied, well, give us what youve got and Ill make up the difference!
Copper starts to see something good might happen.
Copper pipes up with, Thats very kind of the gentleman isnt it? Tell you what, once youve got your ticket, Ill escort you on your train journey to make sure you get to Weston without any problems!
And so thats what happened. Smack head ended up giving me no money, which was a shame, so I was down about six quid, but the copper had a whale of a time getting to watch someone who really didnt want to go to Weston being forced to go there.
Technically, Im out of pocket and to a degree, I was conned. However, in terms of being stitched up good and proper, the smack head who didnt want to go to Weston Super-Mare was!!!!
Weston Super-Mare
A fate worse than death...

Bristol temple meads is just as bad...
not sure which is which, but having to go to both would be like going down on unclean women & your tounge slips to the south entrance.
I wouldnt even put my mouth near that unless i knew she had a shower in the past 24 hours.
nice way to deport a chav imo, very amusing.
