    Hyde Park Picnic - a great London summer experience
    Current
    To be honest it's been a while since I had a good old-fashioned style picnic in Hyde Park in the summertime (well about a year).

    A friend recently organised one for a few weekends time, so this prompted me to put this up on the website and see whether the Hyde Park Picnic theme struck a cord with fellow TP users.

    Tips?
    - Locate near a Public Convenience? Some at North End by Bayswater or near Serpentine Gallery
    - Try not to pick a popular football spot or you will find yourself spoiling a football pitch or being in the middle of one
    - Check the weather forecast

    And watch out for the Princess Diana Memorial Deathtraps -- the shiny bicycle-tipping metal things in the paths, and that scary trough thing that trips you over in the grass.

    True facts(tm) about the scary trough:

    1 The architect who designed it (a freind of the Blairs, funnily enough!) never visited the site or even looked at a photo.

    2 -- It looks EXACTLY like half of a napthalene de-waxing sedimentation race that's part of a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries plant in Chiba.
