Grumpy Old Man

Picnic in the Park

A warm sunny day today, which was good as we were off to meet a couple of dozen members of the family. We met up in Nonsuch Park, near Cheam, and carted all the chairs, food and kids' toys from the car park to a shaded site beneath a wide-spreading tree. The group was mostly from England -  just me from Scotland and a family from Northern Ireland. And a dog!

We had a great time, catching up with folk we might not have seen for years and playing with the kids. We left at the end of the afternoon and got caught up in a traffic blockage due to an accident and had a long detour to get home. In spite of that it was well worth coming down for.

Quote of the Day: 'Everybody loves a picnic in the sunshine. It was always so magical when we were kids.' - Gregg Wallace.
