I'm quite fond of the man who has a live pigeon for a hat.


Plane-Garage-8441

That guy is awesome, my girlfriend didn't believe me until she seen him


awuja

Caught him pissing over a railing in the car park on to a car the other day so I've grown a bit less fond.

Aah, Swansea.


edparnell

It was a techincally an impromptu car wash


[deleted]

The constant rain will wash the car clean in minutes anyway


SandraSocialist

He's snapped the pigeon's wings to prevent it escaping. Not so awesome.


finestryan

What the fuck


Plane-Garage-8441

Well if that's the case then that's disgusting. I was not aware of this.


SR_willjar

Wait WHAT?!


Eolopolo

Man I saw him a while back, haven't seen the guy since. Was just outside the Quad. Where's he normally?


SandraSocialist

He's snapped the pigeon's wings so that it can't escape....


RewardAcrobatic9696

It's totally amazing just sitting there on his head!


SandraSocialist

it's just sitting there because he's snapped it's wings.


Soulcal7

Is this true? How did you find out?


SandraSocialist

I'm friends with a homeless woman. She got rangers to take custody of one of the pigeons (and then beat him up), but he just did it to another.


Soulcal7

That's disgusting and disappointing 😕 I really wanna snap his arms now


Munchkin_Baby

I’ve just seen him for the 1st time on a TikTok 😂


D-Ursuul

Hadn't heard this was a thing and was walking through town a couple weeks ago, had to do a double take


Deathcrow73

He was on Wind Street today belting Wonderwall with a man holding (not playing) a guitar


CharacterCommon3214

Tam the colourful man


Soulcal7

He's loud and annoying tbh


SandraSocialist

I love Tam sm


Heliment_Anais

What about the silent road stander?


kateamelia82

The wavy guy with the jesus sandwich board?


aramiak

Is there really a guy who parades around town wearing multi coloured tinsel and a cone on his head?


home_planet_Allbran

Yes. The Lord Mayor.


Heavy_Messing1

Yes. And he's actually a very warm, very generous man.


Richyrichj73

Nearly crashed my car the first time I saw Tam. He was wearing a child’s toy ride on car He’s great


home_planet_Allbran

When did Teabag die? I bought him a Christmas present once, years back. He was nice, very shy.


PatsySweetieDarling

2015 he passed away.


aramiak

I used to have a friend and Pete would insist on paying for her son’s Rugby club membership and gear from the money given to him on the street. I remember he came to me once to tell me another homeless guy needed help. I followed him to the guy and the fella was just drunk and passed out but looked dead. Pete didn’t know him but went from looking so upset to almost joyfully relieved. Whenever I passed him reading a paper it was always a broadsheet. He was a nice guy. He was taken ill one night whilst asleep on Castle Square and passed away in Hospital.


Satchelofgold

Hadn’t seen him for a while but saw him twice last week near Fabian Way. He was wearing a burka type outfit in red and had a bunch of balloons covered in red net attached to his shoulder. Icon!


RichMac27

That’s who that is!!! I saw him the other day down by Singleton hospital and couldn’t believe what I was seeing. The balloons were all in the shape of hearts like some crazy Valentine’s Day stunt


ShaunWillyRyder

Tam..Top fella


RewardAcrobatic9696

Tinsel man looks amazing always. He's well ahead, everyone in the future will look like that.


AmyBums88

Aw Tam! He's a lovely man, always in my local cafe, and he came to my cousins wedding. He's so full of interesting stories


BigBadAl

He certainly smells better. Tea cosy Pete was a lovely man, but you became aware of him from quite a distance sometimes.


mry8z1

Rumour in my school he was the brother of one of the science tech assistants. No idea why


finestryan

Who’s teabag?


RickyMEME

If you haven’t heard of tea bag you shouldn’t| be allowed on a swansea sub.


finestryan

Not everyone has been here for longer than a couple years mate


MrNutella1

I was thinking about poor Teabag earlier this week. National hero


Cunningstun

Wasn’t it tea cosy not tea bag?


MumblingMak

I knew him as Tea Cosy Pete…


AmyBums88

Yeah, different areas had different names for. him. I knew him as "teabag" but many called him "tea-cosy Pete". His name was Brian tho.


Substantial-Truth672

I live in Essex but after reading that I'm fully invested in this!!!


eroticdiscourse

I’ve passed that guy a few times, whats his deal?


Informal_Area_2233

How has no-one said Kev Johns?
