No Ball Games

This little grassy green is just outside my parents house, the house I grew up in. Me and my brother used to play on here until one too many windows got broken by stray footballs and the council put up a sign "No Ball Games By Order". The sign is just about there still and I had pleasure in telling my kids it was there because of me but they weren't too impressed really! There was some nice Autumn sun this afternoon when we got back from a walk to the park.
great shot Richard. Love your work, it gets better each day

Fun story and shot. I love how kids are not as interested in our "growing up stories" as we are!
