The Sounds of Summer

I had forgotten about the silly noises tennis players make.

I've just popped BBC1 on ready for the news and there they are even sillier than before.

The only time I went to watch the tennis was my last. Went for the old strawberries and cream, then out came my own sound..."How much?, at least Dick Turpin had the courtesy to wear a mask". Dunno why I was refused to be served, must have been something I said.

A float tip is pleasing in its appearance and even more pleasing in its disappearance.
Growing old is inevitable...But growing up is optional.

It's amusing that the sound of an English summer is a French sport. In Northern Ireland, it's road racing. Or flute bands.

Round here at the moment it's the smell of summer. Barbecues and muck-spreading.

As for the sound. Strimmers, and usually from 8am onwards.

All views expressed are my own but you can express them too if you want to be right about everything like I am.

Flute bands?

You lot need to man up over there

@bjallenby - Great video , the bikes are going that fast by the time the camera guy pans round the bikes are nearly out of sight.

Hmmm - the sound of summer round these parts is the rattle of the rain being blasted against the conservatory by the gales. 😢

Sounds of summer - lawnmowers running up and down lawns.
