As I'm waiting on a train at the station one morning, a young guy approached me and said "Ma, het Ma nie vir my 'n R3.00 vir 'n ticket nie?" (Don't you have a R3.00 for a ticket"). 

I could see he is a beggar but not the ones genuinely in need for food etc. I said I don't have - cause I really didn't have any extra money and he walked on to the next person. The guy he asked is a foreigner and he gave him a R10.00.

As this young one came back he had to pass me again and I asked with a laugh why he's lying to people; cause he clearly has no intention of buying a ticket with that money.

He obviously denied it and told me he was just not in a hurry to buy the ticket just then... but he does need the money urgently as he plans on going somewhere later today to attend a party.... 🙄🤔🤦

Have a lovely day Luvies
