If we are talking about cult figures of southend............

Not sure if he is a cult figure but for the last 17 years I swear I have seen the same bloke every time I go down Leigh or Chalkwell seafront.

He has long blonde hair, often rides a bike and dresses as if he is raving in the Balaerics circa 1990.
 
Well could be as shes a percussionist and is very familiar with vibrations (of which sound waves are ) While she couldn't "hear" it she could well have felt it. It being her name and all might be quite easy :D
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

also being a percussionist (hence why i met her) she 'claims' that she feels the music through the floor (why she plays bare footed)... but i really doubt that a deaf person (even a percussionist) would be able to hear or feel someone saying their name behind them... it's either that she isn't completely deaf although i don't doubt she is extremely hard of hearing, or that maybe someone looked at me and that caused her to turn around.
 
Absolute cracking picture. Type in beadle on you tube and he comes up as well. There used to be a guy i worked with whos mate had a whole website on him. :hilarious:

hahaha yeah i see that 'womble' guy all the time. he often comes into the hospital to shout 'madam' at all the nurses and is generally a nuisance!

Oh the strangeness of the human body (we have medically 9 sense's not 5 (thermal senseing , and a few others(their on the net im being lazy)
Well if your striking , the force is going downward hits floor spreads out .
You could be evil and make her stand on a rug :D

Or just maybe she twigged your stalking her ;)
 
Aaaahhh the 'Owl man' working in southend now, there is not a day when I dont look at that man, walking up and down the high street with 2 owls, and a string of kids following him and thing 'what a nonce' what is it all about?? an old age pensioner who loves owls and kids or a new age Chitty CHitty Bang Bang child catcher???

Now Jeremy again I have had the pleasure of following this man through out my life, once having the audacity to nick his hat and throw it up a lampost, still around, still looks like he is going to pull out a big fluffy microphone again NONCE

Penny picker Steve, steve has decided that the money isnt out here in the day, its now all about night time and night club queues!!! every bloody night at mayhem its just pennies after pennies being luzzed at him, he acts like a naughty dog being thrown a scrap of meet, head down scurries across the road to his prize then back into the darkness. I once had the pleasure of standing behind him in Nationwide Bank, and thinking what the **** have I done to deserve this.

ooh the other day the owl man was walking down the road with his biggest asset (european eagle owl ;) ) and there was a bloke walking up the highstreet with a little puppy, and the owl man had to get hold of the oowl by its foot and started talking to it not to get the puppy,!!! what the **** !!! could you imagin if it actually flew down and grabbed the dog in the middle of the high street !!!!
 
The Cricket Hat man was called John if I remember correctly - he always used to drink in The Aristocrat before it became The Townhouse. Always reminds me of Inspector Clouseau when he dressed as the hunchback in one of the Pink Panther movies.

Penny Pincher Steve still roams around the High St. with his bucket, looking in the gutter

that Owl Man always makes me slightly worried in the sense that he isn't properly in control of the Owls. If one of them decides to peck some poor kid's eyes out he isn't really gonna be able to stop them......

and yes the Clown is very dodgy
 
any Shoebury-ites out there?

remember the old drunk tramp with NHS specs and no teeth, always used to abuse people in the street? We used to call him 'Hoppy' cos he would always incorporate a little hop in his stagger.

His name is Michael John Trower and a mate of my sons picked him up in Leigh and brought him round my house where he spent ages going " Hello, squire" before we could get him out.

Very strange chap who has been banned by the bus company for stinking the buses out.

He was in the Carlton in Leigh once and my son's mates chalked a square around him on the pub floor and told him he couldn't go out of the square , so he stood there all day drinking !

What is it about the Carlton that attracts odd people from far and wide?
