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.

PoolsWhere I'm a barmaid, every day this guy bursts in the door and shouts "I'VE WON THE POOLS!", punching the air with his fists and grinning manically.
It dawned on me that he wasn't all there when I walked off to use the till and he started shouting "I'VE WON THE POOLS!" to a basket of salt-and-vinegar crisps, and explaining to them in great detail how he was going to collect his prize. Then he told the fag machine the same thing. Then he waltzed out the door with a manically happy expression on his face.
According to the landlady he's done that every day for the past 8 years.
