Long story
Out with son at Leeds Xmas Market. We were stood talking and entertaining our 18 month old granddaughter when a man walked up very quickly and said can you buy me a cuppa and a sandwich. We were a bit taken by surprise and all said no practically together. He walked away and I felt terrible the way I just said no as I usually do try and help out.. He was around 25 scottish and was in a bit of a state.Wearing really scruffy clothes he looked dirty and had a lot of sores on his face . I went after him said sorry and that I would get him a cuppa and a sarny. We were surrounded by food outlets so I moved towards the nearest one.He stopped me saying just give me the money and he would go to McDonald's further into the city centre. I said no I would buy them here as I only had a £20 note. He told me to F off then. I walked back to my family and started talking and he came up behind me asking if he had "made the wrong choice pal" He was getting quite aggressive and I could see my Mrs getting a bit scared. I asked him to leave us alone and he swore again. I told him to go or I would get the police .He said go on then. I was a bit annoyed by then and told him to p off away from us and we moved away. He was just swearing at us as we went.
It all went to rat crap very quickly and its left me feeling a bit annoyed..
