After being laughted at over and over again phoning people. Finally someone said, yes we have orange boats. Told us where. Lucky we got there early as there were all ages going off in them and did not really want a karen or ken telling us … You can not take pictures.
After they all got in the boats the organisers went back to the pub (I guess hoping the same amount of people come back that went).

Russ and Sarah - we are rejecting your entry for orange boats. We are happy that they are boats - any watercraft you can sit in is acceptable as a boat - tugboat, Mersey ferry, pedalo. Watercraft where you have to stand - windsurfer, paddleboard - are not.
But we do not consider red and yellow boats to be orange in the same way that we remain unconvinced that a black and white zebra is grey.
So you are free to find some truly orange boats and resubmit photographs.
You have never seen a worn out zebra.
Ok this morning we received news from a location that claims they have orange boats. Upon them getting back to us we will be travelling. If I see a grey zebra I will let you know. Cheers.
Sarah and Russ
We accept your picture of Wightwick Manor but we will not allow the bonus for a lake in the picture.
The wiki article supplied as proof makes no mention of lakes in the grounds. The National Trust website for Wightwick Manor also does not mention lakes, instead referring to the two bodies of water as pools.
There is no clear defining line between lake and pond, true, but Wiki gives the commonly accepted definition of a lake being at least 5 hectares in size. We measured both bodies of water on Google Earth being generous and treating them as one but even with our best endeavours the combined area was just slightly over one-quarter of a hectare.
So two points each for your Wightwick Manor photos.
Thank you. Q. Can I get a hose pipe to reach there and make it biger before the end of the challenge? Only a little flood
Thank you, in all honesty I did not realise a difference, or think of it being a pool. We live and learn lol
