Eccentric Brits Part 2.

This guy must be a real head-case

'I balanced a Mini on my head' - BBC News

I once knew a guy who for a laugh would balance a full pint of beer on his head and walk all around the pub through the bar, into the snug then back into the lounge, sit down and undo his shoelaces and take his shoes off then repeat the journey and finish with putting his shoes back on and lacing them up.....all without spilling a drop!

Regards,

Jay.

Eccentric is a good word for it Jay!

I'm sure that Mini is just a shell with no running gear or interior, but that still more than I can do.

Buy him another pint

Oh yeah…I once went down to Tijuana where you pay a guy $5 and he lets you go behind the curtain where there’s this lady standing there and this donkey comes out of nowhere…
Ah, never mind. Walking around half the night in a pub with a pint on your head is way more interesting. Takes more talent too. ?

who hasn't worn a mini as a hat?

 

[Morrison Jeremiah]

I'm going to get myself in shape to do that with a London taxi. Don't know what sort of shape I'll be in afterwards, flat probably.

Jay,
Honestly, are there any Brits that aren’t eccentric?

"Honestly, are there any Brits that aren’t eccentric?"

Likely not Jesse. We have welly wanging (wellington boot throwing) competitions, bog (swamp) snorkelling, the world snail racing championships, cheese rolling, knob throwing, tin bath boat racing as sports so yes, it's quite a national affliction. It must be something in the water

Regards,

Jay.
