A few years back I was in Scotland and visited a performance of Macbeth at Scone Palace. It was performed on Moot Hill. The place where the Kings of Scotland where crowned of old and there at the end of the afternoon people sat down unpacked their hampers and enjoyed the play, nice food and a good glass of wine. In short Happy Living to the max.
So hoping for a better summer than last year I was scouting about and found these two smart beauties found on The Style Files. First off a Picnic rug and bag in one... with quite a posh look to it. I like the idea that the whole picnic experience is contained in one easily portable and very stylish bag.
Also quite stylish, although for some reason it makes me think of a first aid kit, is the second picnic portable. It's this compact dinnerset in one that has 2 plates, cutlery and a corkscrew (v. important). I don't think it would be much use for a full picnic, but this would be very nice for touristy visits. I'm just thinking of my parents visiting London a while back. They had a blast of a time and liked the Southbank area loads. There are tons of nice place to sit and have a nice bite there. And if you go on Friday or Saturday there is tons of the best food in the world available at Borough Market. Then take that yummie stuff get your all in one picnic pack and go to:
1. The Major's building so you can have a bit while viewing Tower Bridge and The Tower.
2. The lawn (if allowed) of Southwark Cathedral. A very nice tranquil place, except during lunch hour when it can get busy.
3. The grounds in front of the Tate Modern. This old building has such a nice vibe and with the Thames so close.. you can't go wrong.
Cheers!
