I seek the collective wisdom of those playing this game. Are the big silo art paintings that are springing up all over the country considered to qualify as "Big Things"? I reckon they do, as they are significantly larger than any common size of painting. I ask because Langers and I have collected a few on our travels.

As Diesel said in the very first post:

It works like this...

Get a pic of your bike in front of an iconic 'BIG' tourist attraction (or thing) and post it here.

So, me thinks Silos (with or without paintings) qualify as "BIG"...

I'd say the silo paintings qualify because they are truly big pictures.
But I've promised myself to save my energy and not attempt to defend the obvious any more.
As a purist I'd probably start a new (highly commendable) thread called "Silo Art".

Yes Silos count, cos they is big...

If points were awarded, a big silo would be triple.

I agree, a separate silo art thread would be a good thing

Larry's feelers were missing at he underwent some surgery. I think he's still there. I haven't been back since, but may do so on my return from Curdievale next weekend

I did indeed. He's been restored to his former glory.

They are, but both are visible in that picture. I only noticed #67 after I posted it the first time.

And now for something completely different. Two STs next to a very small thing, Australias smallest P.O.
I will leave it up to you guys to figure out where it is...

It's Empire Vale, but I'd say the post office at Pinery is smaller.

Probably sumthin' to do with it being a root...apparently people are inclined to shed their clothing when having one...

Surprising there were no undies...
