LM - if i marinade them over night perhaps we could pass them off as tofu to the vegetarians and have a laugh behind their backs? though i suspect my eldest might be tough. that stubborn streak.

Mick, you are a terminally Golf Obsessed headcase. The picnic is on the Saturday. That's like yesterday's news in golfing terms. You can sate yourself on Sunday, mate. I'll make sure my 5 year old brings his plastic driver, niblick and putter to the picnic - you can coach him.

We've agreed to meet from 1pm onwards, exact spot to be confirmed nearer the time.


Anyone that wants to and can make it along on that date is very welcome. That includes golf obsessed headcases too.


As far as I know, I haven't yet* met anyone who has is coming along to this so please don't feel you have to know people already :))



*ok, one lady who is good at backgammon.

The eldest might do for Daizie's dog: Timmy Enrique Hallal - waste not want not...

hello katie, it's your backgammon friend here... sadly I won't be coming... it's my friend's 50th birthday


I wasn't sure if it was a sort of virtual online picnic, or if it was for real... sometimes hard to tell on the forum!!!


sad to be missing what will no doubt be a very civilised affairhttp://www.divinedinnerparty.com/image-files/black-and-white-picnic-theme.jpg

Umbrellas?


OK - I have consulted my picnic guru and the weather gods - this IS still on for Saturday afternoon.


I'll be at Peckham Rye Park, in front of the cafe area, from 3pm onwards. All welcome to join.

If the weather is not so good, or doesn't stay nice - we can always go to the Clockhouse instead.


Hope to see you there*



*unless you have a valid Doctor's note (which will, of course, be treated with the strictest confidence)


PS. might bring some balloons/giant sunflowers just in case you miss me B)

      Fireworks

      I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan.

      The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
