I feel like a child on Christmas morning counting down the minutes till I can open the presents. Every fifteen minutes I refresh the page looking for the 2015 tags and then, curling lips downward, wonder off to find something to do for another fifteen minutes till I refresh again.


I know, I need to get out more. As soon as the 2015 Challenge tags are published I intend to! Honestly! :wink:

 


Please give us our present!!!

Thank you GoG ... Two of these are 20 minutes away from me so I have no excuse for not getting 20 points before returning to work. :D

Great list GOG, I like the way you have altered the regions and not stuck strictly to borders, so Jedburgh is in with north English tags. I can see me doing the whole of Scotland this time as the very northern tags were a long way for 10 points. :cheers:

a question of clarification please.

the listed pub called THE COCK, would The Cock Inn be acceptable?

 

Yes you may have your 'Cock Inn' as a valid tag.

OK simple questions for the experts...


1) Can you log the same pub name several times? Seems there are several Royal Oaks round here :P ...


2) How do you upload pictures is to the forum or via Photobucket or similar?


3) "Beach House Cafe" - Mudeford Quay: I was going to do this one today but the cafe concerned is on Hengisbury Head Will a photo with Cafe in background across water be enough? Or do we have to jump on the ferry/ road train/ walk in our gear to get nearer?


Any one up for a ride tomorrow?

With near beginner..

Each tag only counts once......so you'll only get 10 points for Royal Oak pub, no matter how many Royal Oaks you tag..... :wink:

You can link your pics via photobucket.......or just upload attachments via the section below this one when you're posting a reply..... :wink:

You can walk to a tag if it's not possible to get close to it with the bike......but you need to be in the picture in your bike gear and displaying your tag number..... :wink:

and to add to bobs reply


if you shoot the pics in a lower resolution from your camera or phone then you wont have to mess about re sizing to upload and it also saves bandwidth and speeds up loading times

Thanks guys I should also of asked that I guess the Number 5 in my number plate counts.


As for the one on Hengisbury head I go take a picture and see what the powers that be decide.


I did not realise how regional some pub names are...

No the number on your plate doesn't count


You have to make a number and display it


This is to stop people using pics they may already have :thumb:


We will allow your first one though :-D

There is a road (over the Stour bridge) all the way to the Cafe!


The Royal Children is still open (today) - Even if it closes, a picture of the front of that building will suffice as it is easily recognisable.


NB. There used to be a brothel in the upper floor back in the 60's. :shock:


:cheers:
