is it a 50ft redshank?

Far, far better and proportionately a fair bit bigger.

ye gads! not an oven of oversize oystercatchers?

 

[Joe24]

I have one. Hopefully i will take it tomorrow. Not as big though, but still a big animal.

I've seen that snail from the train south to my Mum's or sister's - so I guess it must be near the railway line in the Sheffield? area, but can't remember where exactly...

yes, you can see it from the train, if you're on the left.

Is it the Shell petrol station at the bottom end of Bramall Lane?

er... no!

Can't offer you a photo in return, but I believe the snail is just to the east of Chesterfield station.

yep, correct!

I've got a huge cock in mind. oow errr missus.

I will have a ride over there in the next couple of days, and get a pic.
Give me a chance to ride the well known hill nearby as well.

Here's gezza's bike parked up against some big animal!

 

[Arch]

Well, strictly, I can see it whichever side I sit, if I look across the train....

Errr and of course, doesn't that depend which way the train is travelling?

 

[bianchi1]

giant leg of an animal. ( sort of ) My bike is the one below

 

[mickle]

Morrisons old chap, Morrisons.

This thread reminds me that I have never figured out how to post a photo

Presumably you use the square yellow icon with a mountain on it, but how do you get it to pick up a photo from your local drive?

I have found a bronze statue of a bull in the centre of Ipswich. I will try and take a photo next to is... trouble is, it looks fairly true-to-life...

once someone has taken a picture next to an oversized animal. do they get to choose the new subject? or do we just keep going with oversized animals? if we change it will get me looking forsomething else and help me learn my local area a little better (i've only lived here 22 years)

If you satisfy the challenge set by the poser of the challenge and they agree, then I think you get to set the next challenge.

Yes, but no one has yet!

Well, this is the only statue of an animal I can find in Ipswich...

it's a fibreglass bull, that for some reason stands on a useless piece of greenery right in the town centre.

Not exactly massive... but what do you reckon?
