THIS time last year we appealed for weather pictures, and our readers did not let us down. Worcestershire basked in beautiful sunshine, with the mercury being pushed up to 28C in some places. Families ventured out to go shopping, enjoy a picnic, visit the city’s park, while others fired up the barbecue and simply sunbathed.

There was so much going on that weekend to enjoy, whether it was the Superheroes fundraiser in Holt, Droitwich Food Festival or Three Counties Show, the weather was perfect for everyone to have fun in.

A number of readers sent in pictures of their youngsters playing in the sun.
