I don't care what they do with the money I give them, I have an accountant to sort out my finances and that means I can sleep at night. Even the money I make from music has to be declared although I've never been pulled up about all the dosh I made busking in Sauchiehall Street.Comment

Anyways, most of the other guys busking were on the dole so I'm playing to a crowd when this weedy wee guy with an HMRC leather sachel pushes to the front, produces a camera and takes a photo then sprints off up the street. Obviously trying to catch out the buskers signing on by circulating pics of buskers around the dole offices, haven't seen anyone so nervous and talking to the other guys over the weeks they all had a similar experience but were never pulled up, probably camera shakeComment
