Sepia Saturday 709 : Saturday 3 February 2024

 


It's miserable and cold outside and even if we leave the weather aside, you've got to admit that the world is a pretty miserable place to be at the moment. The best I can do in the way of helping out is to declare that February is "Having Fun" month here on Sepia Saturday. And we start with some fun at the seaside with our prompt this week featuring some brave bathers from the Netherlands. However you decide to have fun, share your images on or around Saturday 3rd February and add a link to the list below.

Here is a reminder of our future programme of Sepia Saturday prompts:-

Whether it's an aria or an overture, we invite you to submit your best bits for Sepia Saturday on or around Saturday 27th January 2024 and add a link to the list below. And after that you can have some fun. And after that, you can go to work.

Sepia Saturday 707 : Saturday 20 January 2024

 


All those of a certain age will have memories of listening to the radio. We are not talking about streaming podcasts or on-line feeds, we are gathering around a radio - be it mains or transistor - and listening in. So let's all listen in to our Sepia Saturday theme - the sound of music. Share your memories, whether they be of radios, music or anything else, on or around Saturday 20th January 2024 and add a link to the list below.

Sepia Saturday 706 : Saturday 13 January 2024

 


There was something very evocative about good, old-fashioned jukeboxes that can never be replaced by a streaming service. It was the very size and scale of them, all that glass and polished metal, the mechanical clankiness as the arm swung over and the disc fell into place .... ahh, the memories. And memories are what we are all about here on Sepia Saturday and this month we are listening to as well as looking at the sound of music. Let us have your visual memories on this theme (or any theme your care to select - just press the key and select the appropriate button) on or around Saturday 13th January 2024 and add a link to the list below.
