UPDATE! non smoking man, the whole north west
Is there anyone in the whole north west who doesn't know this man? my best memory of him was seeing him at the tall ships event in liverpool a few years back, trying to weave his way through the packed crowds on his bike full of crap, not noticing there was a massive trail of smoke billowing out behind him cos some scallies had set light to his belongings

NEW! eddie chicken, ormskirk
so called cos he responded to calls of "you alright eddie?" from local kids by waggling his arms like a chicken and shouting back, "i'm alright!". particularly funny when this happened when he was riding his bike and subsequently fell off. probably died in a road accident, god bless

NEW! Tony Beep Beep, West Derby/ the swan
Used to scare the shit out of people who didnt know who he was. Average height quite stocky build short hair mid 30's used to go up to peoples windows whilst they were waiting at the lights in the bull ring area of West derby. If you didnt beep he continued to scream until you did. Big thumbs up when you did beep. Rumours where he got killed by a fire engine speeding past. Not too sure though.

Jacko, Liverpool City Centre
Usually found outside Flanagans playing his carboard guitar, though
sometimes it is a tennis raquet or at the mement, it is an old Scatch
board, with a stick attached.

He got put away a few years back for manslaughter, but he's about again.

UPDATE! Purple Aki, St Helens

he was a tall lad but never muscley, a proper bo weirdo ! i watched him getting battered outside the springy chippy (thatto heath) he prayed on vunerable lads but had no boundries, no one bothered him, he used to say he would bring some lads down from tocky to do us in if we messed him about, then he,d walk off proud with a back full of greenys lol, he is deffo touched.

Cherry Blossom, Merseyside
cherry blossom is some guy who dyes his hair with cherry blossom shoe polish. He is seen randomly around but most notable thing about him is that when it rains the cherry blossom runs down his face!

Plank, Birkenhead

One of the many characters who makes birkenhead unique, always in town always up to stuff. In the early days of his arrival he used to play invisible listening to his head phones then he actually bought some drumsticks and i over heard his claims that he was getting a "real" drum kit. This has led way to just general misbehaving (for example on bonfire night he was standing by Woolworths with two hands full of firworks making the sounds). Cant be missed as he is 7 ft odd with ginger hair, a must see if your in the area.

Marcus, Bromborough, Wirral
literally 6'7 or more. Massive skinny Eastern European looking man with learning difficulties. Constantly babbling and
talking about "Danny Boy" and "Ginger Monkeys" Often seen in the Odeon Cinema complex in Bromborough with several tickets for films but never
actually watching them. Also chewed the inside of his coat. Harmless and friendly but
absolutely nuts. Or maybe he was a Genius?

The Commando, St Helens

I know this character as Johnny Wellies.

He wanders all around St Helens and the surrounding area, dressed in dark green balclava, overcoat and wearing big green wellies. I think he stays at the Sally Army hostel near Atlas St. He used to be in Winwick Mental Hospital but since it closed tends to wander round the streets. I remember him riding in from Newton on a bus one winters night two teenage girls were chatting to him and taking pity on his circumstances offered to buy
him a bag of chips from the chippy on Corporation street. John thanked them very much but said he prefered McDonalds and asked if they could get him a Big Mac instead!! Cheeky bastard. I remember talking to someone who reckons John used to be a teacher who went off the rails, dunno if its true. He is usualy polite if you let onto him and often offers you a sweet or a drink of his tea or whatever he has got.

More on Purple Aki..

Purple Aki, Kirby

Purple Aki was well known in the Runcorn area as far back as I could remember.
The rumours went that he would prey on lads, forcing them into anal sex, after which he would engrave a P and an A on each arse cheak.
Several lads I knew went the gym and Aki was well known for appearing and asking to feel their muscles. These lads claimed it had happened to them.
one day on the bus on the way home from sixth form college, Aki got on my bus. My first real evidence that he was not a myth.
He was that black he was purple.
He came and sat by us all on the bus, harassing each and every one of us, asking if we went the gym.
In the end the bus driver booted him off, he didnt like this and started to punch the side of the bus.
The rumours continued and only last week he appeared on the front of our local paper.
Some of my mates who never believed that he existed suddenly sent me e-mails saying thay thought he wasnt for real.
