Buskers, Street Entertainers

• Tivvy has millions of 'eccentrics'... there is the old lady with the Christian advertising boards, Trevor Maunder is a legend the list could go on forever.....
• if u ever feel like being bashed around the head by someone slowly running out of religious quotations (crisps: bad) then Tiverton is the place to come. Particularly amusing when she sits outside the local highschool preaching. (swearing is the devils language). how ironic. see: high school
• Everyone will know The great Trevor maunder, many a story flies around about the old guy but he walks around all year with a walking stick (not for medical reasons) and every christmas at the turning on of the lights he dances around in the middle of the town center with a christmas hat on singing carols.
• The town No.1 Drunk AKA 'Albert'man in his fifties, dark hair and glasses, often see propping up the Twyford bar. The town No.2 Drunk AKA 'scamper' man in his probable sixties wears a flat cap, twead jacket, wellies and bailer twin/electric kettle lead to hold his trousers up, often seen in the White ball.
• DON'T FORGET JOSEPH- C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MEAN HOW MANY OTHER AFRICANS HAVE U SEEN BANGING AWAY ON DRUMS OUTSIDE BARCLAYS FOR THE ENTIRE WEEKEND AND THE OCCASSIONAL FIRE SHOW HE DOES, NEVER SEEN HIM SET LIGHT TO HIMSELF YET THOUGH. WONDER IF HE DOES REQUESTS!!?
• Everyone in Tiverton is a 'character'. But so would you be if you had 3 legs and played the banjo.
• The Fire Man...you'll know if you have seen him. its simple really...he just entertains padestrias by rubbing himself down with looks like to him, a hot flannel...and to us, a stick doused in petrol and set alight burning away angrilly. Incredibly stupid, but at the same time, strangely heart warming.

• The black drum banging dood outside oxfam - will somebody please shut him up?
• A couple. Tristan Makeye (couldn't give a shit if it's spelt wrong) is normally doing a half-arsed Oasis cover somewhere.
• Tristan Macaye (don't give a shit how you spell it) trying to be Liam and Noel Gallacher at the same time. The occasional Big Issue seller outside Tesco.
• lee and john with their shirts and necklaces
• That cheasy twat tristan McCay, can sometimes be heard murdering a cover version of wonderwall somewhere.
