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.

wolverhamptonas another wolverhamptoner, i can safely confirm that the polish war veteran is still there. he has since been offered a house (which he refused, he doesn't like being inside buildings) and apparently a woman brings him an egg mcmuffin every morning.
the current local celebrity is the cowboy - a tall guy in jeans and a stetson. he wonders round telling all the young ladies to get their trousers off and wear tennis skirts. additionally, if you shout YEE HAW! he will chase you - through the busy town centre - and chases have been known to go on for up to and over five minutes.
might grace you with some photos tomorrow
