You can tell us more about Aldershot.

• Harry the Horse, he's an Aldershot legend
• one of the legendary eccentrics living in aldershot is a mr robert furlong, the man who is on "pub watch" and barred from nearly every pub in aldershot, he should go down in aldershot folklore, he is the man that everyone loves to hate, or a lot of the time do just hate, a walking asbo with a huge chip on his shoulder but entertaining nevertheless!
• Stupid skinny old black guy in a tracksuit. Fink he's called Colin.
• theres a big giant man who ive only seen once but check dis... da man's so big he can rap his fingers round the manor park rim(9ft 5) with his feet planted flat on the floor. Also in guildford there is THE BLOG(the bearded lady of guildford)search 4 her on google images and you'll see her, my friends have spoken to her before and her name is jean lol, and to my amazement she is just a normal elderly woman but with a lot of facial hair. When i say a lot i'm saying father christmas a lot. A legend who has been nicknamed ' dave the rave ' has now disappeared there a lot of rumours about this but i dnt know which to believe. Many schoolchildren have seen him flash before.
• There are lots of Big Issue sellers actually... Not too many amusing types in Aldershot. But there is the morbidly obese woman who sits on the bench outside the post office for hours. There is also the umbrella man who offers umbrellas to young girls for no reason. There is the mad geriatric on her mad scooter, who follows you about. Also, there is the strange woman with the birth mark, who stands for hours on Lower Farnham Road in the rain in a floral dress... The town has become slightly saner since Valerie Cookson left [just ask EVERONE knows her!!] Go to Guildford to see the iconic Bearded Lady Of Guildford, who usually hangs around the food court in the Friary. Plus, there is teenage town mentalist, Siobhan Harrison.
• There is a concentration of characters seen most mornings trying to get their first drink of the day (0930) in the Trafalgar pub, Short Street.
• I remember a guy named MC Chatty outside the Funky End who took my rainbow hat, put it on, and then spat a sick rap about it.
• you always get someone attempting to play a guitar for money near the town centre. you would have thought giving them money would make them shut up but it just makes them more enthusiastic
• David the local old piss head that growls alot at kids that throw things at him - ah
• What about the incredibly sad caracter who thinks he's Lindford Cristie, who is to be seen walking round the Wellington Centre in his track suit, chatting up the little shopgirls... get a life mate.
