Picnics are always good.
How about a Sunday as some of us work saturdays?
It's worth being flexible with the date as London's weather can be rather unpredictable.
Maybe a couple of picnics over the summer are possible in different parks?
I'm in. But in case you missed it, we already had one. One with sun, and bees, would be better though.
I miss our picnics
I've only been on one, and that was in the bowels of a museum!
This should be in the uk meet ups section.

I am definitely defintely up for this. When the good weather kicks in (i.e. weather like today's!), we should do this a few times over the summer. However, the end of June is always bad because as a Glastonbury veteran I can tell you that it ALWAYS rains on that weekend!
Anyway, I think PAULSKI should come down for this.
Well why don't we pick a Flumday so nobody can go?
I recommend We do Saturday one time, and then a bit later do a Sunday.
What a miracle worker I am.
I'm up for a wednesday!
Me too!

Then we could go to Beatroute!
I can do any day, as long as I have enough notice. Are weekdays good for people in general?
I'll probably have a job come June, so not really. Though I don't know what my hours will be, nor where i'll be working yet!
Ever heard of annual leave, doofus? Most jobs have it as a feature nowadays.
When it's really hot (HA!) I think a post-work weekday evening picnic/dinner would be nice. Chilling out in the park after a long hot day at work.
Amy, I saw this and thought of you at work:

I'm on placement at the moment which means i do totally randoom shifts, although i'd try my best to swap shifts around so i can come to a picnic...but it will have to be on a hot day, maybe in a month or so's time?
Whichever day we pick, there's always gonna be someone who can't make it.
We can go with the day which most people can do. So let's put it to the vote. Everyone state your preferred day, and your no-no day(s), if you have any.
Preferred: Saturday.
No-No: National tranparent trousers day (in other words, any day is fine for me).
Any day is good for me apart from the ones that aren't.
Preferred - Sundays
Can't make - Saturdays
Okie dokie (are we talking May or June ???)
Preferred days: Saturdays/Thursdays always good, Sundays usually okay
No-Nos: May 24th-31st and June 26th/June 28th
Saturdays/sundays are usually better, because if placement do give me weekends, i have the option of refusing to do them!
I'm sure I'm in the minority but I prefer weekdays. Obviously I will go with the flow and come whenever things are arranged if I'm free! (I have lots of prior plans and commitments, especially in May.)
eta I like the sound of Absent's hot weather post-work cool-down on a weekday evening suggestion too.

I am easy. But that is really a matter for a different thread.

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find me...

Sunday for me
Saturday here

I can do either It's the shyness that's the problem!
I tried that excuse for last weekend's picnic, but they still made me go anyway.

And do you regret it Maikeru???? Would you go again? That is what she really needs to know!

hehe! okay then!
I'll come too btw and I can do either weekend day. I'm away for the last 2 weeks of June though, so I'd like to request an earlier time than that, if poss for others.
What about the bank holiday weekend at the end of May? It's normally nice weather then (except last year) Everyone might be able to do the monday due to NO WORK woohoo
Innit.
good for me ... esp as I get the tuesday off work too! And I have some family that I am well overdue visiting in London

Aw, Linda, pleeeeease come! I haven't seen you in what seems like forever and I miss ya! Of course, you can crash at mine as usual, if you want.
Let's make this on a Linda-friendly day, folks!
