Just this very Saturday when alighting from a 5B at Churchill Square THPP was greeted by the none-too-usual sight of Darth Vader and two Stormtroopers being told off by a plump middle-aged security guard outside the Lego shop. Patently trying to move them on. DV must have sussed that his powers were weak however cos they were still there half an hour later :lol:

I had to deliver a package to the Palace Pier one day and was feeling rather down for some reason or other. As I walked to the front bit this black car pulled up and out jumps a lovely young sawt opens her black plastic mac not 8 feet away from me and a bloke she was with starts taking photos.

Her nakedness was a sight to behold and fair cheered me up! I copped a right eyefull
 








I saw a tramp with a huge beard having a two handed wank on the bench outside Woolworths on Western Rd years ago. Middle of a Saturday afternoon, kids around and everything. He was being so noisy and over-dramatic too yet everyone just walked past him oblivious.

Over the border in Southwick
Years ago. Naked man, sandals and a carrier bag walking up North Street past Barclays Bank. Not sure anyone cared. Certainly no one tried to do anything.
God I remember that; it was at least 30 years ago; I was in East Street, when he passed John King's (camera shop), he got to the Clock Tower, before the sound of siren's were heard.:bowdown:

Drive by abusing
Anyone remember the guy who used to stand at Churchill Square clapping at the buses if they were on time?

I saw a bloke sitting at a bus stop in Moulsecoomb - when I got closer I realised he was having a crap ... and the evidence was right in front of me.

I've seen weirder things in London though. I saw a bloke in a dress and Doc Martens walk up Old Kent Road (which must have taken some balls) and I once just missed a tube train and saw a bloke standing bollock naked in the last carriage.

By the seaside in West Somerset
There was a chap used to walk a sheep on a lead down North Street and around The Lanes - must be the best part of 40 years ago

About the same time the perhaps even stranger sight of a then unknown Leo Sayer singing to himself on the top deck of the bus from Brighton to Shoreham oblivious to everyone around him and not particularly well received by fellow passengers as I recall.

:lolol:
He used to live along the end of my road. I think he may have passed away now though. Either that, or he's moved. Also, who knows the "dancing lady" in Sackville Road, and the surrounding area? She was always so pissed, but so happy and dancing all day long! Classic.

Abort, retry, fail
Rollerskate dude dancing to his HiFi on Kings Lawns complete with nylon tracksuit. Any other city he would attract tens of bystanders. Brighton (or Hove really) and he is acknowledged but left to his own devices.
