Summer is over

Well, in my little corner of the world, that is. For days, it has been wet, cold, windy and dark.
Allegedly, it was the wettest August since they started recording the weather. But who knows, maybe we'll have another warm and sunny November? There's always hope. Together with the summer, our Summer Specials are coming to an end. This is the last one for this year, and it is a real cracker again. Below, you'll find the finalist pieces from last year's The Stretcher competition, among all our other favourites. We'll be back to normal next week, so don't forget to send us your submissions.
