The Mad Monk and Crazy Ken
There's a bloke that wanders around Bradford and the surrounding area wearing nothing but a robe and sandals, regardless of the weather or the time of year. He smiles at everybody and waves at buses. Rumour has it he lives in a cave somewhere near Shipley. My Mum says he was wandering around when she was growing up there over 30 years ago.

When I lived in Bishop's Stortford there was a guy we called Crazy Ken. He'd shout and swear at passing cars and he always carried a 2 litre bottle of Sainsbury's lemonade. Everyone used to cross the road when they saw hime coming. My mate once dared me to whistle at him, which of course I did, and he chased us down the road. We only narrowly escaped by clambering over a fence and hiding in some bushes. Good old days!!!

Quality German names
There's a guy in the company I work for called Gerrit Harder and a woman called Silke Busch.

I also once got a call from an Indian guy called Mr Shitole.

Oh, and I want to school with an Andrew Peacock which of course we shortened to Drew Peacock.

Excellent!!!
