Funnily enough, I encountered my first Polish beggar only this morning...well, he may have been Russian/Baltic Republic/Czech. His English was good enough to ask for 50p for a cup of tea and "..maybe a cigarette..". My reply was to brutally snub out underfoot my half-smoked B & H, and then to tell him, in my usual diplomatic manner, to return from whence he came. Although in London, he understood a Lancashire accent and he was not very happy.
