Does every UK town have its own famous "homeless" person?

Back in the 60s to 80s Leicester had “Rum Weather”.  He was a famous vagrant guy and even had his picture and an article in the Leicester mercury when he passed away. Little was known about him, but he was polite and kept himself to himself and pretty much every family had some story about him.  In the 00s the the centre and Narb had “Bin Warrior”, an obviously mentally unwell addict homeless woman who dressed in black bin liners and fought bins, screaming and kicking them often in the middle of three lane traffic. She resisted or was thrown out of many interventions of help and institutes and passed I believe as a result of her addiction.   Looking back people would find it funny to watch a woman fully launch herself screaming at a council bin and hooting with joy when she’d kick the shit out of it but in reality a very deeply disturbed individual.
