Heid in Bin

[KiltedSoldier]

Wee Tam went for a walk in Aberdeen. He put his hat in a bin then tried to get it out. He was stuck with his head in the bin for 3 hours as people walked by and laughed before someone called 999 and the Fire Brigade came to get him oot.

How old was this person? It is hard to believe, even unsettling to think that no one offered real help. Person could'a choked. or seriously messed up his neck. But, I must admit, I'd be one of the a**holes laughing when I first would see it. Looks like a set-up for a TV show.

Age - about 35 - read he is a street person - not too bright and it was real.

His being a street person could explain the hesitancy of folks to offer any aid, and to not offer ii for so long. I gotta hand it to ya, "K..", calling the dude "not to bright" is a master stroke of understatement! LOL! In truth, tho, it's a sad thing the poor guy has apparently never found a place to fit in, beside the street.

There's plenty of help for such people in Scotland, if they want it. During the winter most of them move in to shelters. We have Army recruiters hand out cards to the younger ones who look fairly fit and not drug addled.
