Themes for Mid Month Madness please

I am very taken by Big Red's Weekender series of comps, but I am often otherwise occupied on the weekend it falls on. He has been kind enough to move the deadline for me a couple of times, but I think we need another similar comp in the middle of the month

SO I will take on the challenge...
May I have ideas for themes please. The more the merrier.


Like Big Red, I will choose four (more or less) at random for each month and give every one a chance at shooting one or all of the themes.

Thanks Colin,
All your themes have been added to the virtual hat.

I aim to start the comp up next week (running 13/14th).
I can't allow it to go any later this month as I need to be in NZ by the 19th for my daughter's wedding


More suggestions are always welcome.

I can't extend the finish time this month as I have commitments that will take me away from internet access, but I will announce the themes for the month earlier in the week. I will make the comp active from when the themes are posted. Entries will be able to be posted anytime up to closing.
