there are places where bells are exposed, I can think of one local to me.  So no, a church tower will not suffice.  You've got a week lads, a picture of a bell and your bike.

Not too many exposed bells up this way that I can think of.  On the breakfast run this morning waiting at the traffic lights and saw this!


This is one of the Bell-Boat "Nelson Buoys" that used to mark the meeting of the Ribble estuary and irish sea.  Now it marks the entrance to Preston Docks...


Bell is clearly visible.

You have confused me now.  My count shows I have done the 10. The rules say the game is to 10 and we start a new one?

If I'm missing something do tell?

Anyhow it is just a game. And I've won it  :lol

Actually you are perfectly right. The ten pics rule is from BCF forum where I also tend to play the same game. No such rule here  :wall
You are perfectly right and I am wrong, sorry  :fish

Anyway, back to the plot, isn't that Donkey in Val's pic a horse??  Don't think we can give him that one....

Looks like a horse to me

challenge is your bike next to a donkey

I think there should be declared a winner at the end of the year and then a new one started in 2016
Maybe also an award for the best challenge picture, Mr Chrisp would be the best judge for this as he started the challenge.

 :eek  Don't involve me in this viper's nest! I said at the start of the year I wouldn't be running it anymore. I can do without the stress, I've gone back to the comparatively relaxing pursuit of herding cats! :lol

No you are not running it - we all do. But you started it -- All you have to do is scan through the photos and pick one, I have seen that you have an eye for an image.
