yesterday, in London

YESTERDAY, IN LONDON


Parvinder and Habib are beggars in UK . They beg in different areas of London .

Habib begs just as long as Parvinder but only collects £2 to £3 every day.

Parvinder brings home a suitcase FULL of £10 notes, drives a Mercedes, lives in a mortgage-free house and has a lot of money to spend.

Habib: "I work just as long and hard as you do but how do you bring home

a suitcase full of £10 notes every day?"

Parvinder: "Look at your sign, what does it say?"


Habib's sign reads: 'I have no work. I have a wife and 6 kids to support.'

Parvinder: "No wonder you only get £2- £3!"

Habib: "So what does your sign say?"


Parvinder shows his sign....

It reads: 'I only need another £100 to move back to Pakistan. '

Wow. That surprised a regretful chuckle out of me. :-P

Funny! Sadly, not far from the truth. <sigh>
