Full name: Robert Carlyle
Birthdate and place: April 14, 1961 / Glasgow, Scotland, UK
Beach Community member: Daffy...one of the three founders of the beach. Unfortunately he decided to leave the beach...
"As I lifted my hand he pulled back, moving out of the shadow. His face was flat like a boxer's, the nose busted too many times to have any form, and his lower jaw was too large for the top half of his skull. It would have been threatening if not for the body it was attached to. The large jaw tapered into a neck so thin it seemed incredible that it supported his head, and his t-shirt hung slackly on coat hanger shoulders"...
---Richard's description of Daffy in Alex Garland's The Beach
