I found this man walking around Paignton about 3-4 months ago. He was lost and looking for a road in Paignton that did not exist. He showed me a bit of paper that was in his pocket and I was walking him to a taxi to see if we could get him there as we past whinstons pub a oldish man come out said he had been in there with him and knew the man and they got a taxi home together? I hope this can be some help but he has defiantly been out and about In Paignton.
