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.

From somewhere in the depths of my mindI've just remembered all kinds of nutters in Oxford. The best one is the one who enjoys standing in the middle of the road directing traffic, and once caused a pile-up resulting in closure of Magdalen Bridge for some time.
And I've seen Oxford's show-tune-singing man in places as far-flung as Summertown, where he asked me for his plane fare home to Ireland.
