There's a fella that can be added to the list that I don't think has ever being mentioned and I've just clicked on I see him everytime I'm in the bridges.
Oldish bloke who normally has headphones like ear defenders around his neck. He has multiple fantasy type rings on his fingers. Sometimes wheres sunglasses. Often see him sitting about or at the coffee tables.

Fella who always sat on the seat on the town bridge, not actually on the town bridge but beside it, probably died on it.
Echo fella outside Joplings.

Is that not the same bloke as Billy the drunk from TEF? Someone bought him a Yorkshire terrier to see if it would make him more responsible but he got drunk, tripped over the dog and fell down the stairs... Billy the dead!
:lol:

The was a bloke who used to dress like a cowboy up red house when i was growing up, can't remember his name.

Think he ended up getting outed as a nonce but could be wrong.

Shane lived at TEF as well I think, he was fiddling on with 13 and 14 year old girls. Someone broke his legs.

There used to be an old bloke who walked constantly up and down the road roughly from the Prospect to the Barnes in 1960s/1970s, on the Bede School side of the road. I think he must have had spondylitis or something, he seemed to be more and more bent over as the years passed. I mentioned him to a colleague a few years ago and he said he thought he ended up being murdered.

F'in hell blast from the past, i remember him. I remember seeing him when getting the 133 bus from the town to silky. I used to think, how the fuck does he see where he's going, 90 degrees to the ground. If we are talking about the same bloke.
 
How about the (look like) twins with long frizzy hair? used to see them about the town?

Has anyone mentioned the bag man? carted his whole life ablout the town in suitcases and carrier bags.

Sunderland Elvis, goes around in an Elvis jumpsuit but can't sing to save his life.

Probably in his 60s or 70s, sounds like him. Think he wore a good raincoat and flat cap iirc
