No, no relation.

Just really really really shit at playing the guitar. As in she can't play a single chord. She's just sat there strumming away, there's no music - it's just noise.

The best 'beggar' has to be the bush man.

There is a legend in Cardiff who sings all the old Sinatra-type standards on a toys r us, battery operated pink microphone.  He's a sort of cult hero.

I love the old guy with the harmonica who is usually outside Game or Peacocks or one of those on the main drag.
He always wears a suit, he must be in his 70's.
I always give him a couple of quid just so I can get a thumbs up.

I like the last image of him holding a huge wad of notes and posing like a gangster rapper.

The law states something like, if they have an instrument they can't be moved on as they are not a  "beggar" and so are classed as a busker.

Loopholes, that's what that's called. She can strum away all day and can't be touched.

Too late. I touched her. She enjoyed it.
