Morris Minor Owners Club

Ok so this idea has worked pretty well on another car forum that I used to post on and its been quite amusing.

Its pretty simple. Here's how it works:

One person requests a picture of something; landmark, road, building, object, anything. The first person to post up a picture of that subject wins.

But it can't just be any old picture - it must have YOUR car in the picture, somewhere. So for example, if I was to say "lighthouse", the winner would be the first person to post a picture of a lighthouse with their car somewhere in the picture, e.g. parked in front of the lighthouse.

That winning person then suggests another subject for the photo, and it continues, ad infinitum.

Rules:
> No photoshops! Genuine pictures only!
> The current "winner" can't submit a picture to a subject they have imposed.
> If two pictures are posted at the same time, OR a dispute arises, the person who suggested the subject decides who wins.
> Try and keep it on-topic... no deviating from the challenge etc.
> If the poster of the winning picture does not suggest a new subject within 3 days of winning, the previous winner must select a new subject.

Ok... I'll start the ball rolling with an easy one.

First person to post a picture of their car with a Friesian Cow somewhere in the picture wins and gets to choose the next subject...


No point to it, just a bit of fun we're all here to have a laugh the wilder the challenge the more ammusing the caption usually is!


So, who's going to win the challenge and choose the next challenge!

Here I am amidst Friesian cows in Friesland,I could even make a picture of a Morris with a dead friesian cow because my neighbour had a dead cow this morning and it was lying next the street waiting to be collected.
That would have beaten you all but alas my son has the camera with him on his holiday and my wife is working and I don't know how that camera works argh.
Best regards from Friesland!

You could submit a sketch..

sounds like a challenge for someone living in Milton Keynes.........

If I win I would suggest the Mooon!!

Okay. Well as my first start was maybe a little challenging lets change from a cow (bit specific for a start maybe! )

First person who posts a Photograph (No scetches or Photoshops) of your Morris Minor outside a CLASSIC RED PHONEBOX.

Think that might be a little easier.....so first person to post a picture up gets to choose the next picture challenge.

Here you go, I'd have washed the car if I had known.

I'll be back soon with another suggestion.

Well done Mick!

You've started it!




What'll be next! Dont make it too taxing like my start!

Its not that easy thinking of something thats accessible for more than a few people.

Ok here we go.

A pub called The 'Crown'

I chose the name the Crown because according to Fat Badgers http://www.fatbadgers.co.uk/Britain/weird.htm its the most common pub name in Britain.

Sorry to anyone not in Britain.

Not so many of them in Ecosseland either!!

Oh I dunno - I know one in Biggar and one in Portpatrick. and I'd bet a quick Google would show up some more. Biggar's not to far from you - maybe pop over with your camera?

Biggar is better known for it's marvellous Ice Cream !! Was there last sunday for that very reason, on my way home from Glenkinchie Distillery!!! But almost every English town (maybe even village) will have a 'Crown ' !

Merely pointing out that there were 'Crowns' in "Ecosseland", and nothing whatever preventing you from taking a photo outside one...

I did say 'not so many' - not that there are none !!

Just biased, I guess - I know two in Scotland, and none in England

Do they have to be real ones?

I though there would have been lots of crown pics by now!! This one is in Great Victoria Street in Belfast and is owned by the National Trust. Its completely original inside right down to being lit by gas lamps. I believe its serves the best pint of guiness in the north!!

Next pic should be of a churh with a spire, easy!!<br><br>

Nice pic dave, Would love to checkout the Guiness.

Next pic should be of a churh with a spire, easy!!

I'll be driving right past one in the morning, I'll stop and get a pic, although somebody is bound to beat me to it!

Is there a difference between a spire and a steeple?

Is there a difference between a spire and a steeple?

Steeple
A tall tower forming the superstructure of a building, such as a church or temple, and usually surmounted by a spire.

Spire
1. A top part or point that tapers upward; a pinnacle.
2. A structure or formation, such as a steeple, that tapers to a point at the top.

I suppose if the roof of the tower tapers to a point, then its a spire.
