Abscate, instead of yelling at clouds from the Chesterfield your sitting in. Show us what you got and how’s it done. Or is it a Davenport? Laughing

IMHO it’s more of a billboard then a flag. I say carry on with the challenge.

IMHO it is a plywood FLAG

I suppose you'd like it better if it had a fricken SALMON on it, huh?

It is a sign painted to resemble a flag. Let's not take the fun out of this thread and just leave people challenging each other. That is not the intent! My entry perhaps leaned a bit too far toward the "creativity" end so it is out and I am good with that!

Let's have a decision on Ceckert64's submission please.

I vote maybe, it's a bit distant, it is true but in fact is a real flag.

I love this thread and the banter, apologies if fake feces stirring is detracting from enjoyment of it. I like the creativity of what people come up with in a week or so, then move on.

When I win this thing, it’s going to be..YVW touching a FLW building with a salmon flag…..nCanada….

Current challenge…..ceckert64 to call!

Dr Google says:
Fishes are a group of animals that are completely aquatic vertebrates that have gills, scales, swim bladders to float, most produce eggs, and are ectothermic. Sharks, stingrays, skates, eels, puffers, seahorses, clownfish are all examples of fishes.

Indeed correct.

It’s animalia…..invertebrates, vertebrates

Fish and sharks are both vertebrates

I was being a pedandick.

There are two clues in the original posting, one is visual and the other verbal... they compliment each other!

A bit cheeky this one. The house across the street from me happens to be green. My VW is just sitting in my driveway. But the purpose of this thread is to get people out driving their VW's. So I say this doesn't count.

There is another green house across town. I'll be driving past that one later and will post if this challenge hasn't been updated by then.

Well then, back the Beetle over there! Very Happy

Or drive to the other one... green houses are not that common, not sure why.

YVWNT a green building.

With apologies to those in other countries, the next challenge is YVWNT any symbol of the USA to honour its birthday. Bonus points if your symbol is a statue/mural/whatever of a founding father.
