Odd me too today, is this a global conspiracy? He could hardly speak a word of english and handed me a written out "statement". I got as far as "Hi, I'm a polish student and I'd like to sell you some art..." and gave him the card back, "no thanks mate".

We had one guy come to my parents door; handed us a bit paper with a begging note written on it about feeding his family and wanted to sell us some portraits of some ugly looking dog!

I'm getting a bit sick of it all now.

A woman came in my shop and handed me a bit paper with a begging note about having four children to feed - she was pointed in the direction of the Social Security office round the corner - the language that came out of her mouth then was good old-fashioned Anglo-Saxon!

I heard that in Darlington the Polish migrants are going around knocking on doors and giving money to the people that live there...

Just wait till the 500,000+ Romany Gypsies pitch up here next year with the sole intention of stealing begging etc.
