Sorry Chris, is there a problem with this?
I believe I’ve met the first bonus point conditions, daylight with no traffic visible and whole junction is visible
:thinking::thinking:

Screen grabs clearly show traffic

:laughing:

Hi Chris,
I did not submit screengrabs, I uploaded a video which shows periods of time when there was no traffic.
I used the sight of first vehicle to enter the junction to end that section and transitioned to the next.
Would you prefer just a single shot with no traffic??
Cheers
Steve :slightly_smiling_face:

Well It would at least meet the criteria, some stuff you just can’t unsee

Great trip to the famous Caen Hill Locks in Devizes today with my father in law. An amazing sight of 29 locks with a rise of 237ft & a 1/44 gradient.

Bonus point for boats in locks I hope as the minimum required would be 4.

Thought as much, :wink:

Although, was ask for 4 or more locks in a row, Just because there’s 29 locks there’s still 4 boats in a row. :smirk:

Makes sense in my head lol! :joy: :joy:

I’ll make you a deal, get me a boat in all 29 and I’ll sort you out an extra Brucey bonus ;o)

Haha! Damn you Chris, :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Nah that’s fine mate, I’m more than happy with just visiting the place today. Truly a work of art. :ok_hand:

Takes something ridiculous like 5 hours to get up there through those locks.

My submission for Item 3: A monkey puzzle tree

I claim a bonus point as there there is a monkey in it (real or stuffed toy

In fact I have been generous and given you two monkeys to compensate for such a piss-poor effort. The tree I wanted to use is safely in a walled garden (admission £7.50) at Staunton Country Park so instead I coerced a neighbour to let me place two of Dogzilla’s toys in her stunted Chilean Pine/Monkey Puzzle/ Araucaria araucana

Dogzilla was NOT pleased with me when I got back …
