Ade, we are having difficulty in finding a Landrover Defender or a Series Landrover in the picture. Could you indicate the vehicle you mean so that we can take a closer look, please?

Think I’m getting mixed up with Range Rover? :joy:

Sorry Ade, we thought that’s what you had done as well. Without sounding like we are teaching granny to suck eggs (we hope) it is always worth a quick look at Wikipedia. It’s actually quite informative on Series Landys, The “traditional” DEfender and the one introduced a couple of years ago.

It’s cool, apart from F1, cars really ain’t my thing. Land Rover/ Range Rover. All look the same! :wink: The marquee was a fluke too, as would the car have been, so happy with what I got! :slight_smile:

I claim one bonus point for:

  • 24 or more mobile homes

I got home and noticed one pitch was empty and nearly cried given this is my second attempt at this subject. Oh well, good enough.

2 points total, please.

As an aside, though it’s not a point for this subject, I thought it worth pointing out it’s a couple of hundred metres from this Dronescene entry. Where can I fly my drone in the UK? - Moor Lane Nature Reserve (Manchester Ship Canal) - Bridges in North West

And with that, a final Trailer Park Boys gif for how I feel about finishing off Subject #22.

Cropping is allowable.

Not sure if you can fix it to show the number required? Or that the committee would consider it to extreme a crop! It’s a difficult location to do a decent hack and slash though I must admit! :frowning:

Ah the lament of a frustrated treasure hunter! You have however earned yourself 2 sweet, sweet points towards your total.

Four points!

Quick question regarding item 12 Wooden Bridge
"Carrying a wheeled vehicle " would a pedal cycle be classed as wheeled vehicle for this item. For it to be valid would they have to be riding the bike over the bridge,or it it sufficient to be pushing the bike over the bridge.
Thanks

Check the definition of vehicle :slight_smile:
Also, does a car cease to be a vehicle when empty or being pushed?
