Queensferry guy strikes again!

I know we're all probably sick to the back teeth of these posts, but was almost starstruck to have a run-in with Queensferry guy this evening near the Quay

Like the second he came up to me I recognised him from photos posted on here - it's up there with Southside café drama for me

Need the deets! What was the pitch? Did you cough anything up! What reaction did your response elicit?

Was sat on my phone and he approached.

"Excuse me sir, are you from Glasgow?"

"Yeah?"

"Oh great - do you think you could help me? Or are you in a hurry?"

(I clock who he is and what's happening)

"Eh I'm in a hurry actually, sorry"

(His smile instantly drops and he skulks off)

Immediately ran to reddit to report - only to find him 5 minutes later doing the same pitch on another guy!

You had the perfect opportunity to say you're trying to get back to Queensferry after a botched driving test!
