Usually if I see some guy sat on the street with a penny cloth I'll put some money in, usually enough to buy either a hot meal or a few pints. If i see a big issue salesman I'll buy a copy, I tend to end up with three or four copies of each issue, more around Chrismas time. Some bloke approaches me in the street and asks me to help him out, I usually will. I see them and think, y'know, they're somebody's son, maybe somebody's brother. I'd want people to be kind to my brother if his life had fallen to such a place.
The more selfish part of that act is a desire for those people to know we don't all pull away, some of us just see a guy asking for help.
