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.

wowMy story kind of bites now, seeing as there are some REAL nutters out there, but there is one guy who's a really happy, nice, feel-good kind of nutter that's always around County Fair.
Everyone on this side of my town knows Tex. He walks around the mall all day, sometimes with shopping, mostly without, and you can always recognize him by the cowboy hat and bolo tie. That'd be kinda normal, but he strikes up conversation with anyone who sits on the mall benches for any length of time and the man's convinced he's a cowboy. It's cute.
He asks women to dance to the mall musak too...my friend's mum accepted one time, apparently he's quite a good dancer too. Who knew?
