Very nice.
Now go get some wine down your neck, you're only a point away from the top of the table now

Exactly. This bloody game is interfering with my Olympic televisual viewing & vino quaffing!!

ETA - although I can't complain too much, my driving efforts are to be rewarded with oral pleasure

Next challenge?

[Gretchen]

After covering miles and miles today across English countryside, climbing through hedgerows, fences, barbed wire and walls, with Johnny and some retired ex service men. And since tomorrow is Sunday, I'm going for...

Your car and custard, next to/outside a National Trust property/site. National Trust sign & name of property must be in shot.

[RobGSR]

I had just battled with your first pic trying to make it clear if it was the NT logo as well
This is as far as I got/could get

I like "Admission: Small charge"
And I can't even use thumbsnap on my phone

Its in dagenham, they dont have much money around here




Your whole car and custard to be photographed in view of a free public access webcast

Things like :-

http://www.abbeyroad.com/crossing/

http://webcam.oii.ox.ac.uk/camera1.cfm

are preferable as they are high speed hd streaming, but whatever you can come up with in your area that other PHers will be able to view from their computers will be accepted.

 

Photographs need to be identifiable so pick a background that can be seen from the webcam, take a couple of shots if need be.

Bonus internet points for getting someone to screenshot you or picking a webcam that records for later veiwing, ie. post a link to the camera before you get there so that we can all have a giggle. Make the effort worth it

Type webcam and the name of your local uni/college into google as quite a few seem to have them in the grounds.

Google is your friend, but here is a couple of sites to get you started incase you are an internet idiot

Oh no
Isn't there an entire thread just for this?

[4key]

No, thats just people looking at the abbey road one, this involves finding one local to you and taking a photo in view of the camera with something recognisable in the background. Theres hundreds of decent locations to choose from

Hells bells.
I'd do it, the few near me need plugins that I don't yet have.
Then I need to set up vnc so I can take the screenshots on my home pc which would be less painful than trying to view it on the iphone and finding it ain't happening :/

[4key]

I can view both of the ones that i linked live from my htc desire, aswell as numerous other ones. You dont need a screenshot, it would just be more amusing for the people watching this thread but not joining in to watch a live feed, if one of them wants to screenshot like they do in the abbey road thread then that adds to the entertainment but not neccersary.

All you need to do is find a live webcam and photograph your car with a background thats visible from the camera. Its a lot easier than finding billboards and jet engines

I found two working ones in Leeds, and they both show the inside of the construction site at the new arena
ETA might have jumped the gun there, leedstravel.info might be what I need............

Iva will probably link the one of him driving across the abbey road one and then we will end up with a picture of toby with a dersert in the background and nothing to reference to whats the worst that could happen, it'll probably work, if it doesnt we can all start a big handbag throwing session again

[RobGSR]

This one seems to update every 5 minutes but I would have to stop just past the 2nd arrow on the right as its double yellows up til there...Do you think its viable?

I mean the quality is kinda poor
ETA it works on my iphone.
Definitely won't see the custard though on that terrible camera
