    Claim: 2 Points, repurposed - Local Information.



    Clearly not well used in the village, cobwebs yuk. The telephone cables were above and surrounded by trees so couldn’t fly too high.

Sorry, just worked out that it should be 3 points for the repurposed K6 telephone box. Please can I claim 3 points for my entry. :face_with_peeking_eye: :blush: thank you.

Nicely done!

Quick question. In the rules it says photos must be taken in the members home country. Is my home country England ( where I live) or the whole of the U.K. ? Only asking as I’m going up to Scotland in a few weeks and of course the Mini 3 Pro is going with me :wink::wink:

And another 3 points for @BadManners

Just be aware though, our Northern Cousins have been trying for some time to have their favourite spots listed on Dronescene as an FRZ. They can get a little jealous when those south of the border venture North, they seem to think it’s King Edward all over again :rofl:
