I WAS interested to read Chris Titley's account of the busking antics of the Yellow Man (Evening Press, August 29), particularly of his ability to sit motionless for periods of 40 minutes.

I wondered about the occasion when he managed to remain in static mode for three hours. Was that one day in July when he mysteriously disappeared from the streets of York and awoke to find himself on a plinth outside Bath Abbey and portraying himself as the Blue Buddha? I just wondered.
