• Southfields John is a legend, especially when he's in costume. He lives around the corner and I've seen him variously dressed in a pair of tiny shorts, or as:

    Father Christmas
    Henley Regatta Straw Boater Type
    Top Hatted Victorian Gent

    He's always got a bike around too, although I've only seen it used as a prop after four cans of special brew. Bellows "Have a nice day" at anyone and anything that moves.

    Actually a nice character to have about when the tennis hordes appear each summer.

    This guy still hangs around Southfields station, usually on the side of the road opposit the tube. I see him every week. His beard has lenghtened considerably
