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.

Selwyn (Mr) BirminghamAnother Dole office tale:
I once gave a taxi spotter a 13 week 'back to work' interview (you had to it was dole law) and asked him about the kind of career he wanted......
He knew everything about taxi's, he new all the hackney cariage licence numbers in Birmingham, and Birmingham council knew, that he knew everything about taxi's and they were jealous and wouldn't grant him one. He had the knowledge!
He was the spit of Patick Moore and I felt like I had done psychotropic drugs, best days work I ever did.
I know too many nutters local and national.
