This is a question Eccentrics

We all know someone who's a little bit strange - Mum's UFO abduction secret, or the mad Uncle who isn't allowed within 400 yards of Noel Edmonds.

Tell us about your family eccentrics, or just those you've met but don't think you're related to.

anyone from Cambridge
will know this chap, Snowy Farr

Madder than a bag full of cats but raised tens of thousands of pounds for charity.

A true english eccentic, who is sadly missed.

sad, i didn't know he had died; amazing chap.
did you also ever see the man who wandered around with the loaf of bread or a fish strapped to his head?

and then there was charlie who worked on the punts at quayside and often used to busk in a bin...

ways to alleviate the boredom of living in cambs.

not seen that one.
maybe he's new. i've stopped squandering every summer being useless loitering around places like the mill pond and jesus green.

He's great!
I particularly like the fact he carries the speakers in carrier bags, one hanging from each handlebar.

I remember him!
He was a legend at my prep school (we always got Wednesday afternoons off to wander into town for a bit). I had no idea he'd died. It makes me very sad.
