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.

And you thought they never survived the 80s...
I’ve a nodding-terms-at-mutual-friends’-parties acquaintance who does this sort of thing.

EDIT: Last time I saw him, he was wearing a genuine Soviet cosmonaut's suit, complete with helmet. I think that seals it.

And with philosophers, to boot...
... but I'm actually having trouble coming up with proper eccentrics - at least, proper eccentrics who're capable of generating an amusing story...
