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.

The Enfield RangerIn & around Enfield (North London) used to walk a man dressed in full cowboy gear - hat, boots, spurs, the lot. We used to shout 'yee-haaaa' at him, and he'd shout the same back. He once acquired a small cart, which he loaded with chopped wood and dragged around the streets. His social worker sometimes helped him.
(By the way, anyone from North London area remember the man in the bow tie who waved at traffic on the corner of the A10/Church Street? Not very funny, but he was a legend).
