There's a Jamaican Busker in Bath who's been here for ages.



All robbed from Facebook groups (12,000 members!)

From Facebook I've found out that his name is Delroy. Though from other Buskar's I've heard he's a bit of a **** and also goes mad if anyone takes his photo with an SLR :confused:.

I remember him from when I used to do promotions in Bath on weekends. He's very good. Always gave him some dough (money)
 
Definitely a lorry... or at least used to be 10 years ago.
The only guy in the world who can go through a McDonalds Drive Thru without a vehicle!
And even the petrol stations were used to him, and let him pick up a pump and put it in his trouser pocket pretending to fill up!
 
Newport had the great Frankie Lodge. Old drunk guy who used to dress in a sharp suit and go around singing opera. Used to chuck loads of money out of his pockets when we were kids, must have made a fortune out of him! http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2428303653

There also the 'Water Bloke' who you see walking around with lots of massive water bottle. He fills them up at home and pours them into the river, because he thinks all the water is running away.
 
Naughty Boy in Tunbridge Wells

Everyone in the town knows him. He walks around town singing "I'm a naughty boy" etc etc. Apparently he has Aspergers Syndrome.

There is a FB group for him with over a thousand members :p http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/group.php?gid=2215465507

EDIT: Just read the rest of the thread and it seems he has been mentioned already. His real name is Sam Semtex!

The duck woman of Woolwich, south east London.
About 5'0", peroxide blond wig in the style of Lady Gaga's. Black leggings and black pumps.
Typically seen waddling down the road carrying a silver/plastic serving dish with her feet nearly pointing left and right. Make up applied with a shotgun or so it seemed.
I used to see this person every couple of weeks and according to locals she never actually went in to any shop/pub/office. Just aimlessly wandered.
 
Genius Thread Idea. :cool:

I'll have to get some Covert pics. :D

To Start we have a Chap called Colin (I think) Dresses in a suit & tie, little dumpy guy proper Classic looking Inter breeder. :p

More Midland Characters to follow.
 
We have Brenda - the bearded lady of Guildford (apparently she regularly hangs out in portsmouth as well...)

There was a guy in Farnham called Kevin as well - always seemed to be around abusing the staff in sainsburys and shouting at people. Used to come into a pub i worked in and ask for a pint of Guiness, apparently he would get very upset if you didn't serve him a half instead...

Theres a guy in Cambridge who cycles around with a radio listening to generally bad rock music at top volume.

The only thing I know about Basingstoke is that Jeremy Clarkson said the only thing to recommend it was its multi story car park.

There's been loads of regulars in Cambridge since I've lived and worked here, on Mill Road in particular, but that bloke on the bike is awesome :D

Oh, during the few times I've been past Beeston over the years, there has always been some guy with grey hair walking through completely wasted and shouting obscenities at people. :p

Well, you could say that about almost anyone in Beeston.

:p

Strewth, looks like BBC SE News hires top class totty! :eek: So that's how they spent my license fee every year... :cool:
 
Crawley used to have some gooduns.
There was the bench bunch that hung around in memorial park (mainly just **** heads) Black Ray (who always wore his black leather jacket and was on the scrounge for booze.. We found his bands album in our price once, he used to be lead singer in Juicy Lucy)
Tim the Dalek was another legend, did a craccking dalek impression whether he was on the bus or in a chippy.
And the obligitory Mad Mary (rumour had it she was minted, like countless other nutters, but she was just mental) :D

*edit* Ray seems to be doing better for himself now http://www.myspace.com/juicylucytheband even if the codeye did swing at me once in the Rocket for not buying him a beer.
