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.

My grandadWas ever so slightly eccentric. One day, we were visiting, and I was watching TV in the front room. He marched in and switched the telly off.
"Right son, on your feet." He indicated that I was to stand next to him, both of us facing forward.
"...but..." i protested. "Ssshhhh!!" he replied, "stand still, face forward, arms by your side and say nothing."
We stood like this for about a minute.
Then he relaxed and said "well done son, go back to your TV programme" and walked out of the room.
"Erm, grandad?" I called out after him, "what was all that about?"
He poked his head around the door, slightly confused as to why I asked.
"Elevator practice" he replied.
(I learnt years later that he may have stolen the gag off of Tommy Cooper but I havent confirmed that).
