Bizarre coincidences of location!

    Discovered today that National Association for the Deaf is located across the road from Waltons (a musical instrument vendor of good repute).

    Just struck me - if I was a talented musician - deafened by a disease/accident - this would do my head in :eek:

    Suppose this never stopped Bethoven though!

    Just wonder how many other bizarre coincidences of location are out there!

    An off licence accross the road from Alcoholics Anonymous?

    A hedgeclipper store accross from a paraplegics (sp) association?

    A sex shop accross the road from a nunnery?

    Can't think of any immediate examples though...

    I actually saw this, almost, about 100 yards from a church I passed that had a really cool noticeboard so I actually looked at it - remembered 8:00 alcoholics annonymous when I came to the booze-shack - had a sign "We accept food stamps!" :p

    Last night I learned that a red Smartie put in an oven comes out looking exactly how I'd picture a microwaved eyeball.

    Odd, that.

    That's odd, it doesn't appear to be porn. Furthermore, it's written in a language I seriously doubt many of us know.

    So where's my elephant?
