The Great Big GADC 5th Birthday and Treasure Hunt Challenge!

Sorry to hear that :frowning:

You will have to do family things now we imagine - help the kids make a birthday card or decorate a cake; take them down to the local 5-a-side games one evening as it gets dark so they can see if they enjoy it. Or you could take the family on an outing to a nice seaside resort and watch the RIBs towing water-skiers …

And who could resist that old family favourite: trip to a level crossing to watch the trains and cars go by! :grin:

“Mark my words, Carol.” smarmed Oscar, “Those striking deadbeat art department wallahs will come crawling back to work like whipped curs.”

“Prick!” thought Carol.

4 points. Is that a different bike or are you guys taking it in turns to plant the same bike on different bridges?

It’s called recycling :joy:

We currently have red bus, white car and blue cabbed artic doing a UK tour :joy:

What ferry to NI are they booked on, I’ll try and catch them as they come off?

Just in case next year the @Challenges_Committee wants a steam train between the stand and 6 players in yellow tops, I am ready…
