Please bring a jumper, jacket 🧥 and a blanket. We usually stay much longer and it gets chilly in the evening. Around 8.30 pm we usually walk to the local pub.
The picnic will be at Kensington Gardens, very easy to find us if you enter the park through Black Lion Gate which is near Queensway tube station ( Bayswater Tube is close too). There will be a colourful flag on the tree - easy to spot on the left side of the main path - photo bellow.
