Re: Unforgettable Characters. Have You Known Any?
There was a 'character' here in Brighton. I personally didn't come across him, but 'Dragon' was a magistrate and she did on many occasions. This man was 'BIG' - over 6'6" and broad with it. He was the town's well known homeless drunk - although perfectly harmless!!!Re: Unforgettable Characters. Have You Known Any?

There was a tramp who lived in an old disused quarry right on a main Cornish road, for years, we used to see him when we passed that way. He would wave at the vehicles & locals used to take him food etc. Can't remember his name though.Re: Unforgettable Characters. Have You Known Any?

I worked for eight years for a removal company, which was housed in an old cinema (ideal for furniture storage). There was one local who thought it was still a cinema and came in regularly and berated us all when told that we did not show films. He would also stand outside and harangue any customers who had the audacity to come in. I usually sent out one of the men to move him on.Re: Unforgettable Characters. Have You Known Any?
Some years ago we used to have a number of eccentric characters around here
