Can you believe it's October in a couple of days' time? The next thing, the "southerners" (hemisphere) will be complaining of the heat while our northern friends will be freezing their bits off! Seasons and seasons of life!
Sorry we're a little late with this week's announcement. Let's just say that a few RL challenges associated with month-end and, well, just life, cropped up. Because we're late, and to keep things fair, the closing date changes, too.
A reminder
For those of you who are regular contributors to the Silver Bloggers Community #bow initiative, and newcomers, too, a reminder that:
The winners' announcement is separate from the new theme. If you missed the winning post, you'll find it here.
to keep things fair: the same person (account) may not win twice in succession.
In summary, last edition's winner may enter, but the contribution, like those of the judges' panel, will not be eligible for a prize .
Theme for the Week closing on Tuesday 5 October 2021
It's time to go back in those memory banks. This week's theme -
Thirty years: three things that shaped my life
Choose three things that happened in three different decades that have had an impact on your life and tell us why. They don't have to be historical or world events: they can be as personal (or not) as you like.
