That was exactly what just passed through my mind!! (Yes, Scurra, I am still traumatised :lol: ). Given a choice I'd personally vote for eating before we go off too far - I'd think the museum would be ideal. Apart from anything else, if anyone did have packed lunch it'd save carrying it...

PB would like to provide the Saturday picnic lunch for everyone. Just one proviso- I'm not carrying it all everywhere :D

My very simple menu is:

1. Ham and tomato bun
2. Packet of crisps
3. A cake
4. A piece of fruit ( Apple, banana or pear).
5. Glass of red or white wine or a soft drink. (paper cup provided.

I need to know
1. Do we have any veggies or vegans
2. Your choice of drink
3. Anything anybody really objects to and a suggested substitute.

Yes MBH, I already know you dont want tomato in your bun and you only eat plain crisps ;)

Would you all Pm me and let me know preferences please. If you dont you get whats given :mrgreen:

Do we have a check-list of who might be around for the weekend?

Also - on a totally different note - something strange and worrying has happened to one of my posts on page 12... a picture seems to have changed (just a little) :shock: :oops:

Okay, sorry to be a wimp, but I now find the picture on page 12 very scary, just as advanced warning to any other wimps out there. :?

Fear not - I've fixed it.

A good reminder about posting links rather than uploading your own picture from your computer..... The place you're linking to may change :lol:

No, no, you two! She said "attached" to her posts.
The nonsense in the actual messages themselves is assumed to be there automatically.
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".
