bitchesbrew Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 excuse me...Every1 has forgotten about the one and only TIBETAN DAVE! seen mostly at drakes open mic but still has his fair share of sightings round about the city centre. Please, someone else state their appreciation for TIBETAN DAVE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voodoo_chile Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 How about the queens cross drunkard? he always wears a bomber jacket and a gold chain or 2, has a tash, generally seen staggering up albyn place in the afternoon?? Or the group of hobos that meet with bags of special brew either on the bench next to Jimmy Chungs or the church's steps next to pizza express? The tanned guy with glasses and a big rucksack that lives in a shack in cults is a bloody legend, I saw him once go crazy at a woman in a bmw..

Teabags Posted November 7, 2004 Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 also, I dont think anybody has mentioned the guy with long blonde/fair hair that is always shaking his head slightly, appears to be muttering to himself and is usually going into phone boxs, then coming straight out again to go into the next one. he can usually be seen around the St Nicholas square phoneboxs or the phone boxs outside the Tilted Wig.also, theres the old man with the massive grey beard, glasses a suit and looks like Grandpa Broon. he just walks around the city all day, and occasionally asks for dsirections to a street that he already knows how to get to. He is usually down the harbour but i have sene him up as faras the Northern Hotel on Great Northern Road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
