| Re: Warning : Rose sellers in Glasgow may be pickpockets. i get hassled constantly by them -especially on fri/sat nights by up to three rose sellers a night.
I'm standing by myself waiting on my friends, who am i going to by a rose for?
you say 'no' constantly but the same ones come up to you.
I have tried saying no, shaking my head, thumbs down and the new one 'traders permit' which seems to be working.
One of my neighbors got their wallet stolen by one of the rose traders apparently while buying a rose for his missus.

| Re: Warning : Rose sellers in Glasgow may be pickpockets. I must smell or be horribly ugly or something, as I've never been bothered by these guys or any charity worker for that matter...
Starting to feel a bit left out
