This is great fun, if not quite in the usual "Tube Challenge" genre. 53 model elephants have been placed around the city of Norwich, mostly out in the open at prominent locations. Most of them are in the centre and can be done fairly qickly, but there are a couple of harder ones (bus trips?). See

for a map. There's also a competition, which requires you to visit 50 of them and collect the code letters, see

The elephants will leave town on 31st August.

Or shouldn't I ask?
Actually in Bath we have a similar set up, with pigs all around the town!
Re: Norwich Elephants Challenge
Well, that's a good question. We were just photographing ourselves in front of them, but it turns out that each has a code (on a plaque on its plinth) that one is supposed to read off and write in the appropriate space on an entry form - see

I hadn't heard of the Bath pigs until you mentioned them, but the two projects seem uncannily similar, even down to the post-event charity auction.
