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.

No I'm pretty sure it's not an offence... But you do have to be prepared for the occasional comment (at the very least) from ex-service people. My daughter used to look forward to it, especially when in her air cadet uniform. She looked on it as another culture that she was sort of "invited into" by wearing bits of kit, so it went along with the territory..
Btw, she was told my her CO not to wear her hat, in cars etc, as the shiny badge would mark her out as a target, oddly....
