Is the London picnic still on? I see no-one bothered to put it on the picnic calendar, getting a bit slack aren't we?!
Having never had the good fortune to attend one of thses momentous events could someone kindly tell me how to get to the hallowed ground in case I fail to see you outside Camden Tube .....
Yeah, me too. I think that'd I'd like to come this time as well now that the hayfever season is settling I can be at ease out in the open without itchy eyes or a runny nose. Ahh bliss. What happens if it rains, as it's meant to?
I've decided to leave my job this afternoon, I feel that it's only a matter of time before I get the sack for poor punctuality, for which I have no excuse but I'd like to blame it on the snooze button on my alarm clock.
Ichy da, Huw
LONDON PICNIC SATURDAY 11th July @ 2PM PRIMROSE HILL From: David Who's welcome?: We can never stress this enough, simply put everyone is welcome, without exception at all. Transport: We're meeting at 2pm outside Camden Town tube station which is on the Northern Line (main interchanges are Leicester Square, Kings Cross and Waterloo). You can also get there by catching a bus, call London Transport on 0181 777 1234 for details of buses. Location: The picnic itself will take place on the peak of Primrose Hill, if you arrive late or don't want to meet us at the tube station you can get to Primrose Hill by heading up the Parkway till you reach the main set of traffic lights, take the road that leads up to the right and that carries you to the foot of the hill (some 500m), then just walk uphill till you're at the top of the hill. Events/Games: connect 4, twister, croquet, soccer, rounders/baseball, climbing trees and lamp-posts, drinking copious amounts of alcohol, playing on the swings and see saw, listening to music, possibly making a film, silly teenage games like "stuck in the mud", etc. We encourage people to bring along games and activities, especially if loads of people can participate in them. What to bring? well apart from yourself in a fine mood and with a sense of humour we'd recommend a larger item of food for the communal pile (things like pringles & dips, sausage rolls, a salad, quiche, you know the stuff) and some alcohol. At the last picnic our communal pile of food covered a large blanket, it really makes it feel like a feast and adds to the atmosphere. For those that are not travelling too far could you also bring board games, footballs, etc. We'll try to have a stereo (courtesy of Susannah or Trousers), but please don't bring a ton of tapes as we won't have time to play them! If it pishes down? well then you'd find everyone in the Spread Eagle, the place that perpetually tries to ban us, and we still go back :) Updates: On the day you can phone 0181 560 1815 after 11am for updates. It's just an ansaphone, but will let you know of any changes, and if it's raining, it should let you know where we'll be.
