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.

V2001Now this may be very slightly off topic as I neither knew this man nor am I related to him.
Whilst in the cashline queue at V2001(the north version) we spotted a man who was clearly an eccentric. Or at least a budding comedian.
If you've seen the film "Tommy" and I said he looked like Keith Moon as (Wicked) "Uncle Ernie" you would be able to describe him. Except he looked scruffy and was collecting rubbish. Every so often he would find a fag end and put it in his mouth and try to light it (it never lit.)
He would also accidentally empty his bag undoing all his hard work.
Now this was almost certainly set up but I couldn't see any obvious friend filming or anyone for that matter watching him. He was attracting no crowd whatsoever.
He was funny though, and I've posted this because around 1% of me reckons this was the real deal.
