The picnic

Welcome to the annual picnic. All donated foods are welcome! Personally I would recommend the vegetarian burritos, which are right next the short strudel.

All rumours of my boredom are painfully true.

Did you know that cyber pies are completely non-fattening?
The usual selection differentiated in the usual way are here, with or without ants or aunts.

Sorry, didn't have time to make anything so I brought Twiglets & Pringles. Hope that's OK.

Here, try some Cheezies. It's a Canadian junk food. Oh, and here's some maple syrup, since it's hard to demonstrate Canadian credentials without pretending I have it on everything. (It's the accent. It just confuses people.)

(Try wearing a hat - that should do it.)

Wonders why annual picnic is being held in November, brings blankets.

Don't forget, Geg, that the Ozians and District 9 residents are not blessed with our autumn weather...........

I just left some hot soup in the treehouse- ES, you'll enjoy retrieving it if you're bored...

I can only find these flowering cacti, do you think daisy chains will work with them? <holds up flowers>

We'll need to get an expert opinion. What's the name of those candy things that people bash to pieces to get to the sweets inside?

Also, why do I get the impression that this is not going to be "annual" as much as "everlasting".

Move over, I want a clean plate.

Well, the cheese sandwich has certainly been there since time began...

At least the rain will clean the plates and soften the sandwich.

Will we be moving clockwise or anti clockwise? - I intend to choose my seat wisely.
