....was a picnic.....well it was going to be a picnic in a park..........

I love a picnic....my favourite meal out.....and I'm much more receptive to a bit of wooing if my date takes me on a picnic..... ;-)

But not in the car park of a MK shopping centre in the pouring rain..... :-(

It was lovely though......and I do have a gadget that clips my wine glass to my plate so I can eat and drink without having to juggle.......or spill stuff......

Followed by A Judgement in Stone by Ruth Rendell at the theatre.......MK Theatre is really fantastic....friendly and spacious...and good, comfy seats....a relaxing afternoon........x

Love the theatre Gness, of been for a while.
Not! I'm tired.
I love picnic, all those sausage rolls, hoummous dips, dainty sandwiches, and little cup cakes. Yes I love picnics!
Did you read that two of Northants parks have been voted the best in the UK?

I can highly recommend Abington park if you fancy a nice picnic. :-)

So do I, Eleena.....this was a little different for me......just one simple set.....ten or so actors.....and four murders.....or maybe five if the call girl turned born again Christian was bumped off in her car.....x
Question Author
Love picnics, Sharon......so much more relaxing than a restaurant or pub......Things okay with you and auntie?...x

I'd not read that, Ummmm.......Abington I guess then......which is the other? I like Wicksteed.....I used to live five minutes walk from there and it's lovely for an evening picnic with a bottle....or two....x
Delapre. The Abbey has been restored and is open to the public.

Used to go to Wickstead with our picnics as a kid.

Thanks, Ummmm......I'll have a trip there......aiming to go away less this year and explore here......on the bike..... :-)
Don't go to Billing Aquadrome!! Went a few weeks back and it's dire!!
I have booked seats for this in November for myself and my best friend (of 40 years). Whilst we won't be having a picnic beforehand, we will be dining in the theatre restaurant. Our theatre Floral Pavilion in New Brighton has stunning views over Liverpool Bay. Unfortunately a picnic in November at the mercy of the winds and infamous River Mersey high tides may be even damper than a car park in Milton Keynes
Question Author
Enjoy it, Parsley.......it's a sort of old fashioned whodunnit theatre outing.......
You'll have lovely views for sure.....I love your area....it has everything it seems.....

I'm back at MK in November unless I book anything beforehand...don't think I will picnic then.....a theatre dinner for a treat I think.....x
Love the Floral Pavilion Parsley - Travelled to see Tom Paxton ther a few years ago - Yes really comfortable
It was rebuilt a good few years ago now, and most people were concerned how the new building would fare. It has the same number of seats as the old Floral in the main auditorium, and smaller rooms with very limited seating, for a more up close and personal feeling. The new Floral has all the atmosphere of the old one.
We go to see a mystery there most years, normally Agatha Christie. They don't seem to be touring this year, so Ruth Rendell it was.


Question Author
I have never been into the Floral Pavilion......I'll be visiting soon and shall see what's on......x
Oh, you must Gness. Check out their website there is always something on.
If you fancy a walk along the prom head towards Egremont from New Brighton and visit the Black Pearl. I have a feeling it will be right up your street : - ))
Question Author
Just had a google around the area, Parsley.....looks just the place for me.....and you'll have super views for your meal.....

I went to Liverpool for one of my Moaning Minnies birthdays and had a great time......we pootled around on busses and fell in love with the city and the whole area......
Went on a Mersey trip and sent a text to Dave saying....on the Mersey ferry....guess what we are singing.....

He replied....theme from Titanic?..... :-)
My husband is a piano dealer and went to Gerry Marsden's house with a view to buying his piano (he didn't). Anyway the derby was on that afternoon (Liverpool, Everton) and Gerry asked my husband if he wanted to stay and watch it. Hubby couldn't stay, but very surprisingly did find out that Mr Marsden is an Evertonian!!
I hope when you visit The Wirral you have a lovely time. We have much the better view across the Mersey ; -)
Question Author
Parsley......my friend grew up in Liverpool...in the 60s she went to Paul McCartney's house with a birthday present....he wasn't at home but his mum let her see his bedroom....
We are nearing seventy now....and she still tells us about it!

I shall avail myself of your view later in the year!.....x
