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.

In Nuneaton:There's a woman who race-walks everywhere carrying masses of shopping and muttering to herself. Unurprisingly she is stick-thin.
A guy who looks like Buster Bloodvessel and dresses head-to-toe in leather. Every day. He stands on corners smoking and leering at people.
In Coventry you have:
The guy with the disabled buggy/scooter with assorted guff on it: Frankenstein mask, rubber skeleton, many hats, dolls, a sign saying "END IS NIGH" or "I'VE BEEN TO THE MOON"; and the most maniacal grin ever. I think he's an old hippy. I haven't seen him for ages, he may be dead.
