    @philntfc and@crossy2112
    It's true. We lived in Banbury, oxon. he had white eyes, or maybe one white eye and an old fashioned pram with a knife grinder in. He would come round when the gypsies were in town and we were scared of him. Think it was his eyes and that he sharpened knives combo! :)
