Am i too gullable?
I was hanging round outside Kings Cross today passing time waiting for my Train home, when i saw a sort of pretty posh bird looking a bit lost and sad. I asked her if she was lost and she started waffling on about coming in into London for a business meeting and stuff, then she said look i'm just gonna come out and ask you - "I need £6.50 for a train ticket."
Becasue she was quite fit, and female i gave her the money and told her not to bother taking my details to give me it back. Am i a stupid gullable tw&t? I wouldn't have given the money to a scruffy looking bloke so maybe i am. Perhaps i should have tried to get something in return, like her pants or something.

Tut. It was on TV about this, on "The Real Hustle"
They basically just do the same as what the lovely lady has done to you.

Re: Am i too gullable?
I take it you meant 'gullable' as in pooped on from a great height? (rather than 'gullible')
didn't you stop to think why she hadn't bought a return ticket? Last edited by CoolGirl; 14-01-09 at 07:50 PM. |

Re: Am i too gullable?
Oh dear, so it would seem, gullible indeed. However I can't talk. I once was stood in a bus queue with ma ma, and a bloke who got off the bus shouted anyone need a ticket to where I was going for a quid (costs me £6 usually). so I said yes I'll have it, then when he'd gone I realized it was a ticket from the day before
 Golly I was ashamed! Me ma found it vaguely amusing in that way mothers do Lol, but one thing for sure I won't be making the same mistake again! You live and learn
