The craziest thing is that feed has AUDIO as well....IMPRESSIVE!!
I was watching it a few hours ago when it was all dark and nighttime. But now that it's daytime, I see nothing but groups of 4 people crossing together. It's hilarious - all these people reenacting the photo.

Love the double decker buses.

No it wasn't the red lorry has left the studio in your photo. It was the london philharmonic orchestra lorry.

Right colour m sport 2litre though.

First photo the adrenaline was pumping so forgot to get the car in the photo the japanese tourists were very helpful and did the walk again for me. BOOM

It certainly gets a lot of horn blowing when you get out you car to take a photo at the crossing. HAHA.

14 mile round trip over one hour. gotta love London driving...

apc3libras · 03-25-2011, 06:32 AM

No worries It was a right buzz just doing it.

Next challenge: in the current climate fuel prices are changing daily. The UK has seen a tax drop of 1p a litre to give a pump price of 140p ish per litreof deisel. So your E9X being refueled. Pump in tank please.

Easy.

Kensta335 · 03-25-2011, 10:39 AM

Awesome job mv57. haha the second pic they all took off their coats/jackets.

panicos81 · 03-25-2011, 11:13 AM

here are the gas station pics

panicos81 · 03-25-2011, 11:43 AM

Aww damn and I was just about to go buy some fish sticks

98005xi · 03-25-2011, 04:05 PM

I moved about 5 years ago and I know I'm missing a ton of stuff - either through decluttering or just being misplaced/packed. This is all I got unfortunately...but you can tell, that I've used it quite a bit back in the day when I used to live on the CA coast in San Luis Obispo and fish off the many docks.

It prolly won't be accepted, but let me know either way.

pwhipple06 · 03-25-2011, 05:43 PM

Oh man...I got out of work and rushed home to try and win...and me being an idiot...I didn't check to see if someone beat me...but here's my late submission. I grabbed my poles...my canoe...my life preservers...my oars...and BEER!

DL · 03-25-2011, 06:04 PM

Tough one here but from what I found it looks like the word gear is the key. Does it mean singular or plural in this case? No "a fish" was included in either which would have made it clear.

What I found:

"Although the word looks like it refers to one, we use it as if we're referring to more than one

LIKE MANY OTHER ENGLISH words, gear has more than one meaning. For some words, the different meanings go with a different sound, although the spelling is unchanged. Tear is one example.

Gear, however, is both spelled and pronounced the same way whether it means (a) a toothed wheel used to transmit rotation, or (b) a collection of equipment for some specific purposes, such as "camping gear" or "fishing gear."

When more than one toothed wheel is present, we speak of gears-plural, rather than gear, singular. For the other kind of gear, though, the word itself is both …"

I'm cool either way. I only had a fishing pole handy. Figured that the worst that could happen is my pic would get bounced...no biggie. Loved the challenge idea though. Nice canoe and all the rest of the gear (even got the beer bro!)

Hope we can get a few new challenges posted/completed this weekend.
