Random People! Back to homepage
This page is dedicated to random people that I rarely speak to but see on a regular basis, such as:

CarWash Man, who washes cars outside a garage that I pass every morning, and I've seen him every day for years.

CarWash Man's Friend, who is basically CarWash Man without the hat.

Fanta Man, who walks around Abingdon sitting on benches (although he has a perfectly good flat behind the tattooists/drug suppliers) and chainsmokes, and occasionally he steals a can of Fanta from Woolworths.

Stripey Man, who lives at the Abbey and works in the tattooist/drug suppliers and wears a stripy top and, during the winter months, a headscarf.

Big Issue Man, who constantly sits outside Woolworths saying "Big Issue? Big Issue, Madam? Big issue?"

Tim, who works in the Pizza Hut with the stairs.

Dance Man, aka Herr Tanze, aka Jive Bunny, aka Das Jiven Kaninchen, who monopolises dancemats in Trocerada in Leicester Square, and is really really good which just shows that he doesn't have a life. He looks like Archie from Balamory.

Salmon Man , who wears salmon shirts, creeps up on people at bus-stops, appears to be scared of ginger people, asks them where they're going and if they'd like to go back to his house to juggle something-or-other that I don't want to know about, and "see what life is really like", and when turned down claims that he only asked out of pity because "ginger girls don't get many offers".

22 Man, (awaiting a more catchy name) who sits on buses and makes bets about whether people are over or under 22. After discovering they're under 22, he then invites them and their friends out for a drink. He then falls asleep on the bus and strokes the handrail, narrowly missing the "stop" button.

Blackcurrant Fruit Pastille, a strange lady who wanders the streets of Oxford clutching an empty wine bottle and a yellow stereo, performing short jigs at random.  Believed to be a distant relation to Herr Tanze.
