Bright clothes are popular again this year. Mike likes long shorts and coloured T-shirts. Hmm … not sure about the shorts, but the T-shirt is cool.

You have to have sunglasses, but what kind? We found VERY BIG sunglasses and VERY SMALL ones. We thought they both were pretty cool. What do you think?

C. Summer Vacation. My favourite three songs  by Robert Smith.

1.  ‘Summer in the city’.

 Are you staying in the city this summer? Well, this is a great song for city people in the summer.   

2.  ’The sound of San Francisco’ by Global Deejays.

    Summer is the time to travel. This great mix takes you to London, Paris … San Francisco. And if you can’t go that far, at least you can get up and dance!  

3. ‘School’s out’ by Alice Cooper.

School is finishing for the summer soon so this had to be on the list. You always hear it on the radio just before summer vacation – and I think it’s great.
