THE charity panhandlers gracing Civic in the wet today were scraping credit card numbers on behalf of the Cancer Council.
Usually the only way to tell these menaces to the commons apart is by the colour of their t-shirts.
So it was nice to see that, in keeping with the Cancer Council’s stand against the causes of skin cancer, their charity muggers had been fitted out with twee little sun hats.
Not that they were in much danger of getting sunburnt in this weather.
Who can be trusted?
