Something you learn to ignore when you live in a seaside town with only one set of public loos and they're no where near the beach.

I would let the local police know on the non urgent number. They probably know him and he is probably harmless, but it is the school holidays and there are a lot of children out and about who might he affected by his behaviour.

It is sad that someone should lead such a life.

Probably better just to ignore him. He was drunk. The police could have moved him on, but he'd just sit somewhere else with his beer can. He wasn't, after all, being deliberately obscene. Had he been waving it about in an exhibitionist way I'd have called the Police at once!

Walking back from my local library this morning just after 11am i went through our formal gardens where i spied a man standing behind. the hedge right next to the pathway. I walked past and looked at him but he gazed right through me.As i walked on i turned to glance back and saw him doing up the flies to his trousers!!!! He was peeing in the hedge in full view of anyone walking through the gardens. I saw woman ahead of me and spoke to her about the incident, should i call the police what should i do, she said he is a local drunk, she pointed out he had moved to a bench and was drinking from a beer can. She said i am moving from here to sit further down the pathway i carried on walking, but it was on my mind all the way home. What would you have done i feel i should have done something but not sure what??
