    anyone see that little old lady thats hunched forward, she carries a large shopping bag with her, and goes into loads of coffee shops around town winging about her corns while asking if she can take a little muffin/cup of tea/ sandwich

    think her name is joan or joanne


    she is meant to have made over a million pounds begging outside bewleys for a few decades, she owns a house in rathgar, and never talks about anything but her corns or her friends corns
