Local NuttersEverywhere in the world has its fair share of deranged people. I grew up in Wolverhampton and remember the Polish tramp who lived in a tent on the roundabout. Legend had it that his coat was stuffed with cash. More recently I notice the guy who spends his day pushing a trolley round Camden Sainsburys shouting, "Best of luck!". Constantly. Tell us about your local nutters. Points for details. Extra points for photos.

He wasn't local but...On a trip down to Brighton for my brothers job interview we were walking down the opposite side of the road along the sea front, if you get me, and the people we were walking behind parted to show some strange gentleman who was quite clearly pepped full of drugs and begging for change. To say that the sight scared me would be putting it lightly. It was quite possibly the scariest sight I have ever seen. Luckily his attention changed when he saw two women walk past and he staggered after them shouting "Ladies, can you spare and change?." His face was a mix between someone who had just woken up, a Joey Deacon and a drug addict. Scary indeed.
