EccentricsWe 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.

Guitar Man/basketball man...There was a rather large (6tf10-7ft tall) Afro carribean man who would walk around Birmingham city centre either with an acoustic guitar strapped to his back or bouncing a basket ball (or both), making random comments and laughing loudly in a chillingly deep voice.
Story goes - he was all about to start playing for the Birmingham Bullets (basket ball team) when injury struck and prematurely ended his career, sending him loopy!!!

I've seen this guy...It would be far less alarming if he was either 10 years old or obviously mad, but you're right - he looks like a professional player. Don't remember the guitar though... maybe a recent development?

not that recent...it was about 7 years ago i last saw him.
I was seeing an indian girl at the time, and he shouted "White man, Indian girl, HO HO HO HO!!!"
Then carried on his merry, demented way!

I know him too!When I was studying at the AMS he used to question me about my guitar! Nice guy, if a little nuts.
