Ok, so who on this forum is Streetmacz on Pinterest? It cannot be a coincidence that after looking at the first set of bus and tram images posted by Rothboy, suddenly my Pinterest homepage contains similar images of women in macs queuing for buses. So unless Streetmacz has also read RB’s post and searched for buses/macks, I can’t see how the two would be connected.

1 and 8 are my favourites, but what the heck is that thing on the side of the building above the bus in number 13? Looks like a massive spider - creepy!

JM

Thank you! Great finds!

Cheers JM! Just been on Pinterest (Streetmacz pages) and you are right. Quite a few of the links I put up are now on his/her Pinterest pages. You'll notice though that he/she has cropped them quite heavily. He/she has also put up a few stills from the link to the American girl in the glassclear mac that I put up recently. As you say, can't be a coincidence - must either be a member of RCRF or a guest on here. Oh well, not to worry - can't say that I'm all that bothered to be honest.

My favourites are the short red ones in 10 and 15.
In some pictures the coats are hidden quite well and the one who discovered them in the first place definitely has good eyesight. On the other hand most of the board members most probably have "selective viewing".

Just so long as there is a rational explanation. What freaks me (and this has happened) is chatting about topic with someone then suddenly finding the object of the chat appears as adverts in all the programs I use. I don’t own a smart speaker, and audio assistants (or spies as I like to call them) are all switched off on my devices.

Yeah ILC - I like those too. There's also another nice one of a lady in a shiny red PVC mac in the first set I posted - number 9 (in Nice, France).
