No. It is red. Bonus point subtracted … 
If the containers had read Asda or Aldi or Morrisons we might feel more generous!
All right then, three points for the telehandler, four for the containers
Amen to that.

Don’t make scoring too easy for us will you Paul?
A picture of the diesel from a similar angle to the one of your steam loco would allow us to determine whether it it is, as we suspect, a Class 08 rather than an 09. 4 points.
Nice try for the canoe colour bonus. No!
Just the one, Mrs. Wembley.

I completely forgot yo get a better shot of the diesel sorry. Maybe these help, although still not very good. I was a little way away from the station and there was the potential of losing VLOS and signal if I went lower
“Right,” chortled Bertie, “Guests, check. One a member of GADC, check. Homemade cards? Ah, thank you Jeeves - and the cake? Check. Candles lit, check. Drone ready? Batteries charged?”
“Botheration!”

@JockyB 3 points awarded
John, you are claiming 3 points for the hillfort, one point being a bonus for being built prior to 800BC
The notice board you photographed claims the fort to be late Iron Age. The Iron Age in Northern Europe did not begin until around 550 BC. Your wiki link also gives the information:
It was probably built around the first century BC or the first century AD
So two points only for the hillfort
