On Marsovo Pole (Field of Mars) in the evening there usually appears a man. He is very thick, wears glasses, his name is "Daisy" and he gives candies to children and flowers to ladies. More

I live nearby and each time passing by this place I see this elderly gentleman sitting on the mound and next to him there are two pictures in A4 format, one of them is a picture itself the other is a note. These pictures are very unusual. One time I saw African Papuans playing the ethnic drums and below the note “African SMS”, next time it was a... More

This is a Krosh the car, a car from the popular cartoon series “Smeshariki”. You can also meet in the city the cars of the other cartoon characters, made in the similar style. Hilarious guys! More

This winter such an unusual car was found in Tchaikovskogo street and made the papers. All that would not matter, if the inscription were not so strange. The abbreviation of DPS (Road Patrol Service in Russian) is written with Latin final “S” instead of the Russian one and of course that strange word Pilice. The car was parked at the building... More

In the 90s a small old lady was met on Nevsky prospect. She accosted people in the street and started to speak with them in rather aggressive way though keeping always smiling. More

Rudolf Kagramanov is called “King of Scandals”. It’s an amazing person, the author of the very absurd complaints and petitions to Russian government. Making scandals is his profession! For instance he has forwarded a complaint to President Dmitry Medvedev stating that they have to stop showing the film “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood... More

I was astonished when I saw a representative of our road-guard service riding a motorbike. It’s hard to say wether he was going to overtake a Mercedes of 700th model or just a bicycle but the speed was about 70 km per hour. Why not using donkeys, airships, dog sleds or scooters for road patrol? :-) More

A woman dressed as a rabbit (pink skinny suit, white fur ear muffs, fishnet stockings and fluffy tail) was met at Nevsky Prospect in the 90s. She was about 40 – 60 years old. No one knows wether it was a self-presentation or just madness. More likely the second… More
