lurksalot Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) It is time for the formalities of deciding the next monthly champion and after due congratulations to @skankdelvar , who is finding his groove with style, he chose the following image for the March challenge. It is now incumbent on the BC massive to pick their favourite 3 Your choices are as follows .... 1. @Dad3353 It was the colours that inspired, with thoughts of voices from the East; will they ever be heard again..? Where are they, right now..? To be played quite loud, to drown out the thud of cannons. 2. @Nail Soup Daffodils always remind me of a works trip to a daffodil festival. The organiser has a son with some kind of nuerotype which leads to argumentative behaviour, which is very difficult for his parents. This is one of the few works trips he didn't come on. That is one of the topics covered. 3. lurksalot A few observations put together in an oddish sort of time , reflections of simpler things maybe 4. @NickD Inspired by the colours, the times in which we live, the thought of bits of kids being sent to do a job that's not at all what they were told, and the story of a very brave old woman. 5. @Leonard Smalls Here's a bit of jazzy groove with a soporific feel. Or not! Either way, it's inspired by Frank Bough eating daffs on Nationwide 😁 6. @Nicko Inspired by the Latin name for the daffodil, Narcissus which led me to write something about those people that rate themselves too highly. 7. @skankdelvar Just a song about daffodils. They're pretty. 8. @SH73 The song is called Diedfordills , unsure if lyrics have any meaning 9. @upside downer An instrumental with a slow and steady beat, a chilled feel and the wish that we'd all kick off our tight shoes, grab a tipple of whatever takes our fancy, smell the flowers and try and enjoy our time on this crazy old world with our fellow travellers in time and space. 10. @MoonBassAlpha It's a spring-like, yearning, germinating thing. Or something! ymmv! Well that's your lot , and a jolly good lot they are too! choose your favourite 3 Voting will close at midnight on 31st March , which I believe is a Thursday,.... It is ... yes its a Thursday good luck to all Edited March 26, 2022 by lurksalot 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickD Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Calling @lurksalot. I think the poll might be messed up. It only seems to let me select 1 tune from this fine selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks Nick i could blame a tough week and getting home late and falling asleep , or I could fess up and say I shared a couple of pints in the local on the way home and forgot to tick the box on the poll 😳 it should be good now 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonBassAlpha Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Good turnout! Maybe they've all been like this recently, I've ducked out recently, not been finding the pictures particularly inspiring, which is a big thing for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing I ever get an entry done (procrastination), and most of this one was an hour and a half leading up to the midnight deadline! (Got my deadline day mixed up). Feel free to say "it sounds like it", and I'd be the first to agree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
