jimrex Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 if everyone is happy with that then a new challenge will follow later. I'm happy with that... let's get this thread going again :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Next challenge- Your car in full view in front of a Post Office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyedge Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Damn! I'm actually going the post office tomorrow, but it is in the back of a Co-Op store which isn't visible from the car park anyway <_< Don't think they'd appreciate me driving my car into the shop Edit: We used to have the only crossroads in the country with 4 P's on each corner, a post office, a police station, a pub & a parish church which was in the Guinness book of records. However, they closed the post office several years ago & it is now an estate agent's :( Sadly, it looks likely that the police station will soon be closed, see here: http://www.warringto...n_under_threat/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Next challenge- Your car in full view in front of a Post Office. that’s a tough one for me because the crowds of people queuing outside every day of the week collecting their dole. its impossible to see the post office Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManxKat Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Oooh one I can do, bet someone beats me to it! It will mean parking illegally for the 2 mins it takes me to get out the car and take the picture but I can do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 All part of the fun. I thought this challenge would be more accessible to everyone so as to get the thread buzzing again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, next challenge: Your car with a lighthouse in the background :D If people struggle with this I can always come up with another, but be interesting to see if anyone can do it!

alexp999 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Got a (road accessible) light house about an hour and a half from me. Would make a nice trek out, but knowing my luck I would go all that way to have someone beat me to it, lol. (If you are wondering why I would go on such a long journey for a pic, my commute is only about 2 miles so I take the car out every few weeks to give her a run).

Marcr1 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I could probably do this but I'll have to dig out my slr camera and the lighthouse will purely be a spec on the horizon :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iNath Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I live in Northampton - if you check a map it's the point in the middle of the country that's furthest from the sea in every direction :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I tried to use my car to act as a light house once lol didnt work though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy H Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Lenny you crack me up mate! I think that happened because your car was facing the wrong way around, if you had them cree's pointing the other way it'd probably saved the ship! Kerry that was a good picture, i too did not think standalone post office's exist no more. As for the challenge. Stoke On Trent in the West MIDLANDS. I have NO chance haha, good luck those close by, interesting choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManxKat Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 P'ah that's not even a real lighthouse lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcr1 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 You didn't say it had to be working But it is a light house none the less :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I am lucky that my home town just happens to have a lighthouse conveniently positioned on land having been rebuilt after removal from it's original place out at sea and also have a breakwater 3 miles out from the coast the other side with a lighthouse on too. I held off on posting a photo to give others a fighting chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
