Used to be a guy round here called "nutty norman". Walking on the spot and stinking of piss were his trademarks.
Also "cider ronnie".What a character. Once rode a white horse through town centre on a sunny saturday afternoon,wearing a sombrero and with bottle of strongbow in hand.Caused traffic chaos as every body wanted to stroke the horse.

Norwich has many crazy folk as u can imagine! There used to be a guy called "Marigold Man"... A coloured guy that wore bright orange marigolds and directed traffic on several busy junctions on the main ring road in Norwich!! He was totally mental, unfortunately i think hes passed away now!
Theres a couple round here (Bexhill on Sea is full of nutters!)
I remember this one old man who would always be talking to himself as he was walking but on this occasion he saw me park my car, open the door and put on my coat and all I hear is in an old git's from Harry Enfield type of voice was "oh, he's putting on his coat".
He then starts to talk to me. He's ok really but rumous has it he pushed his mum down the stairs which killed her whilst laughing but got let off because of his mental condition
Just a rumour though.

When I used to live in Southampton, I used to drink at this pub (Court Jester) in the city and every Thursday night there used to be this guy that would walk back and forth so everyone in the pub could see him. He'd have some song buzzing round his head and he'd just dance back and forth playing up to everyone in the pub, but he never came in.
Never found out his name or even met him but it got to the point where all the pub regulars used to look out for him, was free entertainment.
Cheers

Here is a thread dedicated to him on a local forum i found
http://www.thisishartlepool.co.uk/fo...p?TID=733&PN=1
My are and surrounding area is littered with weird ones. Some I don't know if they are still around or not.
The one that stick's out the most is a woman in her 40's, she wore like 10 jumpers at once, alway had the same stinking old skirt on with fucking minging tights and brown bedroom slippers, she used to walk everywhere bacwards looking over her shoulder.
Used to be a guy that started twirling really fast if you shouted "do the wirley birley."
There was a man that walked around with one of his leg's locked ( as if it was in a cast ) shouting "have you seen our Martin?" He used to chase us when we were kid's for mocking him, and the bastard could run like fuck despite his crocked leg!

Theres a guy, about 40, looks like he is badly stuck in the 70s, and ive never seen him walk, he just RUNS flat out everywhere, in quite smart but proper 70s clothes
Our old next door neigbour who was about 80 used to do the same! Never seen an old granny move so quick in a big coat and shopping bags
Fred and Rose West were local characters a few years back, but they dont need any introduction
Theres this old guy whos tiny with a big red bald head, looks like one of the riddlers, who contstantly jabbers on in a incomprehinsible language and laughs at everyone like hes taking the piss, he might be irish, but cant understand a word he says
Theres a tramp called One Hair, just cause he got hair down way past his shoulders, but its just a single giant matted lump, one giant dredlock, never seen anything like it
Theres this woman with mega long hair, white as a ghost, whos always on her own, even in clubs, rumour has it shes a hooker, constantly wondering the streets 24/7 but not homeless nd often seen in clubs, with a habit of randomly accusing people of rape for no reason, which can be funny
Theres a guy who works for the council watering the plants in Bath where i work, about mid-late 20s, big muscley tanned meathead, and he soooo deliberatley soaks himself with the sprayer everytime showing off, he hillarious, he does it even when its properly chucking it down too
Wouldnt take the piss tho,hes massive
Theres also this guy in Bath, meant to be some local gangster type everyones trashed of, face almost covered in tatoos, dresses smart all time.
I think in a less pussy town he'd get his face smashed in if he came the crack, but there everyone trashed, but then again he has got a completely tatood face
The heroin addict tramps in Bath are proper comedy too, having massive slanging matches in the middle of town centre, often with the guys in tears and shit, its mega funny jus as its so strange, and they always arguing about a missing 10p or something gay too
