    That squat that he walked to and stayed looked a scary place, i don't think you would get a lot of sleep in a place like that.
    Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    Come to think of it, I've done that more times than I can count!

    It was the idea of not knowing anyone (and it was seriously skanky, trainspotting stuff) that was a bit more freaky.

    Did you get to try the Heroin ? They say it's moreish :confused:
    I came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:

    PN - they're aren't enough 'thanks' buttons to press when someone saves you having to watch 30 minutes of ITV.

    Agreed. I hardly ever watch ITV any more. Only Harry Hill's TV Burp. I love that show.
    Fokking Fokk!

    Hospitality offered stretched to: Tea, food, fags, booze, cannabis, best mattress, duvet, beanie...oh and seat around the fire. ;)
  • A former journalist who was living on the streets this time last year is using his story of recovery to help others.
    Ed Mitchell, once a newsreader for ITN, found his life spiralling out of control after a 15-year addiction to alcohol.
    But after going into rehab last year, the 55-year-old has remained sober and has now become one of the faces of Centrepoint, Britain’s leading charity for homeless young people.
    Mr Mitchell featured in The Argus after he was discovered living rough on Hove seafront last year.

    Betty/Peter Pickstock picked up pennies off the pavement for 22 years. Friends/family also chipped in. They have collected £369,850.31 in that time.
    That's 4600 pennies every day of every year... Did they buy an automated penny-sweeping-up machine with the first couple of grand?

    ok, quick question. One of his rules was no stealing...'liberating' food and clothing from M&S's bins is theft so he broke his own rules...shame on him!
