Put some make-up on in order to look like Widow Twankey, you'll probably get more sympathy. Don't forget to shout out, "He's behind you!", as well.

faraday Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 It would be wrong, just plain wrong of me, to suggest - even for one moment, that this is Colin & Bluesofa. So I won't.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucius verus Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 What was the fine?. 7895 b ..lol Actually they can't really fine him otherwise how will this quality Chinese tourist get home. Swim up the river maybe. You have to pay. Immigration don't pay for any foreigners except for maybe Khmer's,Laos and Burmese who are easily kicked over the border.

Pique Dard Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 i may sound cynical, but i seldom give money to "beggars". what i mean is this: the state should take care of those not having sufficient means to make a decent living. that is why we citizens pay taxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it sounds like you really just want to keep your conscious clear without sparing any change to help someone in need.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
