You'd find him on a racecourse. He's telegraphing (by arm movements) the odds to other on course bookies. He always wears white gloves, to be seen better.

Answer 7

he is a person who uses arm movements to talk to another similar man the other side of the course or too far away to talk to.he was really used before 2 way radio was invented but you can still see the odd one working away.you will find him close to or right by his employer ,a bookie and if you watch carefully you will see who and what he is saying and who to.

Answer 8

you'll find him beside his tic-tac van..he's the guy that goes around the race track selling tic-tacs!
