Why?
I live in London, so therefore see a number of the down and outs that fit the typical stereotype of hobo, one of the guys I see on the odd occasion is pretty weird. I can’t really call this bloke a proper tramp as he always looks quite clean, despite living in a box the size of a wardrobe that was stolen from the local cop shop – it still has the police signs on it for gods sake, and we know that its his as he takes the thing everywhere with him. According to some people he has been homeless after some problems with his family and friends.

To say that he can be eccentric at times would be an understatement. I have seen him around my estate a few times inserting mumbo jumbo words into normal sentences. The problem is he’s not talking to himself he is usually accompanied by someone (my guess is a care worker of sorts). So far I have seen him being followed round by three different type of care worker, always going along with his made up stories (must be part of the job description or something). The care workers also seem to be pretty decent looking (well the first two I saw him with anyway, the latest one was a bit too old for my taste.

Anywhoo this bloke (I don’t know his name but my guess he was a GP at one point due to his nickname) will always be seen round town causing all kinds of mayhem and after the trouble dies down he hides in his box and buggers off somewhere else.

I had better get off it looks like the Daleks are back again so my vagrant friend (aka the doctor) will be here soon.
