Anyone ever come across the old guy - probably about 5ft 5ft, quite thin - who goes about the town with a shopping trolley, walking stick and cap?

He used to come into an internet cafe I worked in on Hanover Street back in the mid 90's and steal the newspapers at the end of the day. Very well spoken, but quite eccentric.

Couple of years back I was sitting at the traffic lights on Leith Walk and before I knew anything he'd jumped in the passenger seat! Got me to take him down to the self-storage facility on Salamander Street and then on to Inverleith, but was paranoid that I'd find out wherever he was going.

We know very little about him, he refused to tell anyone his name, although he appeared to have friends in high establishment places.

Anyone know anything about him?
