I quite like picnics in the garden or whilst fishing by a quiet lake, surrounded by trees but with a nice spot for sunbathing, I like to do old-fashioned picnics with sandwiches and rolls, bite-size snacks, crisps, fresh fruit, flask of coffee and bottles or cans of lemonade, coke and/or fruit juice or squash. I love that idyllic feeling of lazing about snacking in the sun, talking with friends and watching the wildlife – perfect summer’s day. I confess I also like solo picnics where I have everything I like to eat and drink, take a good book to read and a puzzle book or two and pass a pleasant afternoon relaxing.
