ragudave Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 The guy wears a helmet and pull a sign about police brutality etc and wears an army jacket. I think his protest has changed a little nowadays ?The dirty/ well tanned tramp guy who buys cassettes in One Up and then breaks them up.The owner of that wee Italian bistro / cafe place beside Union Terrace Gardens who has "character".The lay preacher guy who sometimes preaches on St Nicholas Street at the weekend with his family looking on in a very sad embarrassed manner. He claims we are all going to hell unless we become a copy of him and his views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
