I think he looks really interesting' date=' although he doesn't have make a noise in the library when he is walking around with all the stuff on his clothes....[/quote']I think it's Parkinson's or something similar. I remember seeing a piece on Grampian TV on the Braveheart guy, can't remember much about him but isn't he english? Travels around a lot I think.The blind Big Issue guy is called Chris, quite a nice bloke.Little metal bloke with Deirdre Barlow gregorys, isn't he mates with the metal dwarf brothers, one of whom glassed someone in Drakes a while ago? What happened with that - did he ever get done for it?The mini-kilt bloke seems to wear trousers all the time now, I think he got warned, as he didn't usually wear anything under said mini-kilt... he lives up Gt Western Rd, he's very strange.There's another trampy type who wanders about a lot getting angry at people for no reason. He always has broken glasses and has a big rucksack. he lives in a tent out Cults way somewhere and quite often gets thrown out of shops for being angry. He can quite often be seen of a morning having arguments with his reflection in the window of Edwin's barber shop.There's another Big Issue guy, Ryan, who is covered in huge scars after he got on the wrong side of some dealers in Logie. They sliced him up and left him for dead, but he just pulled through. He has some amazing stories.And the guy who waters all the window boxes for the council, used to see him strolling along six inch wide ledges thirty feet up...Heaps more I can't think of just now.

He was still speaking to himself then as well. What about Dod as an Adeen celeb - he is quite often seen playing bagpipes at random spots round the city, wearing tartan troos and always at punk and reggae gigs. I think he will always be a punk...

Guest allsystemsfail Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Whatever happened to the mime artist woman with the squeeker?Used to think her sitting on her platform during breaks dragging on a cigarette kinda spoiled the effect of her act.

Guest Stripey Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 "ohhhhhh did you hear about so and so, ooohhhhh you wouldn't believe it" This thread has just reminded what a pokey little town aberdeen is and how small minded and petty the inhabitants can be. Here's an idea, instead of laughing at these people on a message board, why not just round them up into castlegate square and stick them in stocks and cages so you can all throw stones at them and poke them with sticks for a laugh? I mean, that's what the mentally ill and destitute are for isn't it, to give you a laugh and make you feel good about yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
