Local Nutters
Everywhere 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.

ipswich

trev. old chap. i used to see him every day in the cornhill in ipswich - always immaculatly dressed in black overcoat, suit, bow tie and trilby. quite a short bloke tho and harmless.
he used to wander around muttering the same words - 'pigeons pigeons - my wife - pigeons'
legend had it that he was a Millionare hermit living in a big house somewhere who went mad after his wife died.
