It’s almost the 1st day of Summer, so there’s the theme.

That’s SUMMER - not 1st days Grin

What does summer mean to you?
Ice cream parlours, seaside trips, summer days in the park even a deck chair in the garden.
Indulge your seasonal selves and brighten our week.

And according to the forecast from Friday we are to see the end of the current storms and so to;

The rules:

1. The challenge is just for fun.
2. All images must be taken after the theme is announced.
3. All images must be uploaded by 8pm on Wednesday
4. All uploads must be B&W (or sepia toned)
5. Only one upload per member
6. The person who hosts is the judge for that week challenge and the judge’s decision is final
7. The winner gets to create, run and judge the challenge for the following week
8. Have fun
9. Just in case, rain counts as a British Summer

Well, the BBC leadership debate is starting so its 24hrs until closing on the far more important B&W challenge.

The clocks ticking and the forecast is for a decent afternoon.... at least on Teesside.

10 hrs of summer left, that's the challenge not the actual summer (although you never know for sure)

I slapped on the waterproof sun factor today - not because I was going swimming, but in case the rain stopped and the sun came out...managed to obtain an appropriate entry...

Well....

Phil...... A good summers cricket match. No Silly Mid on in sight.
Simon.. Nothing like feeding the ducks
Eddie... Straw darts, so many memories of running round the fields behind Grans house 50yrs ago.
Malc.... Ready for summer showers and sun protection inbetween.
IL........ Flies have invaded our living room this week also.
Linda.. Schools out for Summer, all hail Alice.

So you lot don't make it easy.

Well it's been a tough choice between the last two....

But for this week that dubious honour goes to Eddie. Not only a lovely shot but triggered childhood memories of playing in the field and aiming these darts at each other.

Well done Eddie - over to you.
