It's our son's first birthday this weekend. With it being in late July we've planned a picnic to celebrate. Given the rain looks to continue does anyone have any ideas for an indoor location (our flat isn't big enough to fit everyone in!)?


I am going to see if St Faiths can help us but with it being a Sunday I'm doubtful.


Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Hi,


You could try the Living Water Satsifies cafe in Crystal Palace if that's not too far away. They have a back room they hire out for events. http://www.livingwatersatisfies.org.uk/venuehire


Or you could try the salvation army centre also in Crystal Palace. There's free parking for up to 4 hours behind Sainsburys just off Westow Street.

You could try the conservatory at the Horniman - I don't think you can book it and would have to get there early as it can get busy but it's an inside space where you can eat your own food. And then you could dash out to play in the gardens if it stops raining or go see the fish in the aquarium if it doesn't!

BBC weather website is now saying 23 degrees and sunny for Sunday so you might just get away with it. Nip down to B&Q buy an awning type thing that will act as shade from rain / sun and head off to your selected park spot. All will be well.


Saino's have some cute picnic plastic wear and rugs on offer too.

    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
