Beach picnic!

In the grand tradition of English picnics, it was freezing cold, grey and overcast, but at least it wasn't raining. In our campaign to eat more food outdoors, our Sunday picnic on the beach at Embleton was perhaps one of the more extreme options. The menu obviously included pies, chips and dips, sandwiches in greaseproof paper and a melon, and possibly less obviously a coconut. Even the sun made an appearance later on (although if there's anyone out there who wants to follow suit and picnic on the Northumberland coast in May I recommend thermal underwear and a parka...)
