Mr. Rotheroe and I have been discussing some of the things we have seen whilst living in Hyde Park and have come to the conclusion that Leeds is possibly the weirdest place in Britain. Seriously. The amount of weird shit that goes on is on a scale I can't say I've seen before. Some examples:
Whilst walking through the park, Pete saw 3 policemen on scrambler bikes racing each other.
Collis and Dave were outside discussing strangeness when a girl came running down the street screaming in nothing but her underwear.
There is an elderly asian gentleman who walks past our house at least 8 times a day, headed toward the mosque. He always has the same expression (sort of a self satisfied smile). We have dubbed him Captain Jack Sparrow.
In town yesterday two skanky locals walked past. Clucking.
Any question asked in Leeds market is answered with "A pound please love"
My barber openly talks about how much coke he had the night before.
Abi woke up one morning to hear her neighbour screaming "Goodbye Sue! Goodbye Sue! Goodbye Sue! You the one!"
Big Dave was frequenting a local kebab house when a completely naked man entered and ordered a takeaway, whilst the owner was yelling "NO! YOU CAN'T COME IN HERE! FOOD PREPARATION AREA!"
and finally.... The Royal Park kareoke.
