Yeah, we all know about Purple Aki, essentially Liverpool’s most famous weirdo / sexual predator / convicted felon. But I reckon the country is riddled with other small town freaks worthy of a mention here.
I used to work in Hamilton Square back in the early 2000s, bloke used to sit in the park there having his lunch… with his 12 foot albino snake next to him. He lasted a couple of months doing this before the police told him to fuck off.
I was reminded of said snake charmer when I was walking in Birkenhead Park earlier this week; bloke was there trying out his new radio controlled car… wearing a ski jacket, his underpants, and a pair of brogues, no socks.
