Eileen giggled quietly to herself. Lacing the tea with a slow-acting laxative would give her both revenge on the Challenge team and time to rinse away the evidence.

Hi can any of us enter this challenge ? I see many different things , if so what is the goal , what do you have to do .
Thankyou

Start at the first and second posts which explain in detail how you can try to be a winner. You still have time - there are nearly four weeks left

It is open to all GADC members.

You are given a set of subjects to find and photograph. It is finding the subject that counts, not the quality of the picture Each subject is worth a point. Each subject carries a series of bonus items, each worth a further point. The person with the highest number of points is the winner.

Read through some of the posts - you will soon pick up the idea.

Get the maps oot and the batteries charged, the more the merrier!!! Welcome to the challenge @Kirky , although I hope you fail miserably in second place behind me :rofl:

I’ll probally cock it up ! :person_facepalming:t2::smile:

Most of us will pal, but it’s all about the fun of the chase!

100% I’ve got one in my library but it was taken 3 months ago can I use it
Thanks

You will find a full set of the rules at the top of this thread.

Unfortunately one of said rules is that all entries need to have been taken during the time the the competition is open. So anything from 3 months ago would be inadmissible…

2 points Gavin.
Next time, if submitting a Drone Scene entry could you give a little more information?

Drone Scene entries are to help other people, perhaps unfamiliar with the area, find the TOAL point, the best place to park, other attractions and amenities. Give the information that would have been helpful to you before you flew there.

North Down & Ards Council allotments, Bryansburn Road, Bangor, Co. Down. Taken 9/08/22 around 12 noon, with Mini 2.

I’m claiming one point:
Allotments :white_check_mark:
More than 24 sheds/greenhouses in view :question: **
At least one person sitting in a deck or camping chair :x:
At least on person wearing a red top :x:

** There are more than 24 sheds/greenhouses on site, not including the blue one (bottom right) and light brown one (top right) which are in private gardens adjacent to the allotments, but some of the ‘greenhouses’ aren’t glass ones but those mini plastic ones, which maybe don’t count, so I’ll leave it up to the committee whether or not you think it merits a second point. :slightly_smiling_face:

1 point awarded.

Sadly we can’t accept the plastic temporary greenhouses towards your total, as with the sheds/greenhouses bonus we’re looking for structures with a degree of permanence to them.
