@great-big-stees saidMy friend better than that get the coffee for them ask what they want in it and what size, if your feeling really giving. Some have addictions and will use that money for something other than a coffee.
When I see a person who looks down and out, I always give them "coffee money".

Am I right in thinking your "stray cats" reference was to the band? 🤔
Who are they?
@torunn saidI'm not currently eating anything, but the house smells of fried onions.

@very-rusty saidI am enjoying some blackberries with cream at the moment. They were beside my previously mentioned egg salad from this morning.
It is still here torunn. Just changed course a bit as most threads do. 😉

@great-big-stees saidActually it is from experience with people who have and have had addictions. I learned that one many years ago, if you give them money you could be feeding their habit not them.

@very-rusty saidI am not a social worker but I have always thought of myself as, "my brother's keeper".

@very-rusty saidAm I able to differentiate between those with addictions and those that don't? Not usually but yes, on occasion. Mostly to me they just look down and out.

@great-big-stees saidTrust me you can't know if they are on the down and out or have an addiction unless you know the person well. Then you may not know if they have an addiction. People are very good at hiding their addictions.
