Feeno Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Its called artistic license. I didn't have time to check when I wrote it in my lunch break. It must be nice to see your baby come full circle, all grown . I read this about 3 or so years ago. It was quality then and its quality now. Back in the day I worked for a company out in East Lothian that had a strong hobo workforce, an I pinned print outs of that work of art every where. A raging hobo is a funny sight.

jambonian Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 A Hobo is so easy to spot. They tend to look as if they've got the weight of the world on their shoulders, or is it just a great big chip!?. You rarely see them smile, they always look as if they're about to hit the next person that looks in their direction, they have this uncanny way of growling at people, they know, deep down, they support the smaller team in Edinburgh but will never accept fact, they're always drunk and say "eh?" at the end of every sentence_eh! Next time your out and about and you see some bloke acting like everything above, 8 times out of 10 you'll find them a Hibby, try it, you'll see!
