Tramps, burn-outs and the homeless insane all go to making life that little bit more interesting.
Gather around the burning oil-drum and tell us your hobo-tales.

yes horace!
best tramp ever. though not really a true tramp per se, as he does actually live with his father from what i understand.

a few months ago when i was walking through north finchley, i walked past him to discover he had actually gone to the trouble of recording himself say (shout) lots of swear words into a little portable tape recorder he had, for quite some time i might add, before playing the tape back at full volume.

I've heard it! He was in Budgens (surprise) begging them to let him have more batteries as his tape player had died on him
I bought him some as he would not leave without them. The woman serving scowled at me for it :)

hah yeah bet they loved that!
petrol on the fire and all that.

he's also rumoured to be a timelord, is horace. hasn't aged a day in the last 20+ years he's been around finchley by all accounts. it's suspected that in discovering the secret to eternal life and time travel it has caused him to go a tad loopy.

Horace isn't a tramp, and he was mentioned many times in the "Local Nutters" QOTW a couple of years back. nothing but nice things to say about him, he always brightened my day and parted with a jovial "BEST OF LUCK!!".

My apologies then for assuming he was a tramp
and not merely a local nutter who brightens your day a little each time you see him.
