I've actually been in there, buying a painting if you're at all interested, and heard the sob story, saw the money given 'for electricty', which was then handed over to a waiting dealer outside in Abbey Street, for two ten quid wraps of smack.

That sort of charitable help aids no one.

I really don't care if one or two fools don't see that.

They can take comfort from each other.

Like addicts take comfort from the town having the Maundy Grange here, which allows their addictions to continue unabated.
