Summer with The Fuscias

 

Another blisteringly hot day, here in Slide Central.

Still, it's not as hot as in 1963, when these two lads were forced into wearing a woolly cardigan and a woolly pullover, to try and insulate themselves from the heat.

Bonus - 

Science?

A Day Beside My Pool

 

Another scorching day here in SlideGuy Central, so I'm mostly chilling (or sweating) beside the swimming pool.

So, in response to very nearly one enquiry, this seems like the ideal day to delve into the secret "Hot Babes in Swimwear" collection of slides.

Here we have Gretchen Farklehoff, a typist and ditch-digger from Huddersfield, lounging in a woolen swimsuit that her geandmother knitted.

Bonus - Still too hot.

Another American with Fish

 

I've said it before, and I'll probably say it again.

Americans have a strange compulsion to be photographed holding the fish that they  angled.

Why???

Bonus - 

Yeah

Feeding The Ducks

 

Formerly a good old traditional British activity for the weekend, it's been banned because of bleedin' 'Elf n Safety.  Tony Bliar and co declared it non-PC, yet he allowed millions of furriners to come into...

Sorry.

My computer was it Daily Mail mode.

Now sorted.

And This Is AFTER Photo-Enhancement

 

This was a very under-exposed slide (second image here), and my first thought was "If some felt the need to keep this for XX years, it must be of  great historical importance.

A quick brightness and tone adjustment, and ...

...nope.  Person in car. Dull.

Bonus - Antipodean Map of the world.

A Bare Bear and Baby Bears

 

No info on the slide, other than a data of October 1958... and I might have guessed that era from the wonderful American car style on the left.

Bonus - Remember that every warning on an item is there because of somebody with shoot for brains.

So, think about this.

Bikini Weather

 

Today's a bit cooler, tho' still rather warm. So, let's celebrate that with a slide from the 1977 Bikini Models set.

Two lovely ladies, in their lovely bikinis, cool off in the pool at Tarlair Swimming Pool

Bonus - Ripples

Hottest Day of 2025 (So Far)

 

Longest Day, today (At least in the Northern Hemisphere.)

So, here's an image which could be from the southern hemisphere.

Hope that helps cool you.

Bonus - 

StoneHenge say the usual bunch of Solstice Loonies today.

Flower, Bush and Bark

It's fascinating.

Bonus What if you funneled Niagara Falls through a straw?

Oh Look, .... Aardvarks

 

Now, if I know my American Military Aircraft (disclaimer, I'm not an expert) those appear to be General Dynamics F-111 aircraft ... a.k.a. The Aardvark

Bonus - The F-111 as Pop Art.
