if you go down to the woods today,..

Well, indeed.

Teddy Bears Picnic.

Was fun, eventually...
Just shows you how Facebook can Big Up an event.
So, SA Sam, The Gorgeous Son, The New Girlfriend, The Hubby and I, off we all go, excited about the Teddy Bears Picnic as advertised on Facebook Events.
Leave Worcester Park in our pyjamas.
Only idiots in pyjamas on the train.
All hoping we would be joined by millions more .
Not so much.

Arrive at function.
Only people there.
Look even more like tits, now, not only were we the only people in pyjamas on the trains,now we are the only people in the whole of Green park in pyjamas.
Now we just look like Chavs who have had a rough night out.

After sitting sadly on a park bench, a lovely girl arrived...she knew we were there for the picnic, seeing as, yes, as mentioned before, we were the only people in Green Park dressed in pyjamas. That is how she knew she was in the right place.


She was from Alaska.
We all went into mad Saffa mode and told her about watching Goeiemore Alaska in SA .
She looked a bit sad, and told us how Spanish people told her about the programme, Icelandic people, German people....she herself had never heard of it.

Sad , actually. Seeing as everything I know about Alaska, I learnt from that programme, called Northern Exposure, to give it its real name.

I digress...

Steam punk band arrived, made things much better, music always attracts people.
Laugh Yoga...well, you have to laugh.
Lordy! newAge Stuff can get really hilarious!

Still and all, fun day, was a bit hysterical when it started to hail...real hailstones, not big by Saffa standards, but quite scary by Pom measures.
Weather here is mad.

Despite totally rubbish organisation, hail and rain, lack of any facilities whatsoever, we had a fabulous time!

All down to the fact that we are fabulous.
And the sun makes life in London great!
