Description
A picnic is a pleasure excursion at which a meal is eaten outdoors ideally taking place in a beautiful landscape such as a park, beside a lake or with an interesting view and possibly at a public event such as before an open air theatre performance, and usually in summer. Descriptions of picnics show that the idea of a meal that was jointly contributed and was enjoyed out-of-doors were essential to a picnic from the early 19th century.
Picnics are often family-oriented but can also be an intimate occasion between two people or a large get-together such as company picnics and church picnics. It is also sometimes combined with a cookout, usually a form of barbecue; either grilling (griddling, gridironing, or charbroiling), braising (by combining a charbroil or gridiron grill with a broth-filled pot), baking, or a combination of all of the above.
On romantic and family picnics a picnic basket and a blanket (to sit or recline on) are usually brought along. Outdoor games or some other form of entertainment are common at large picnics.
Some picnics are a potluck, an entertainment at which each person contributed some dish to a common table for all to share. When the picnic is not also a cookout, the food eaten is rarely hot, instead taking the form of deli sandwiches, finger food, fresh fruit, salad, cold meats and accompanied by chilled wine or champagne or soft drinks.
Please ZOOOOM and get out your virtual deckchair.
Have a nice day.

Pass the pork pies old chap, there's a good fellow. Pickled onion? Don't mind if I do. I really, really like this image. Lots of effort gone into it and totally worth it. Thanks for sharing!

very pastoral setting and superb landscape I am not much for eating outside and never go to outdoor restaurants as I do not want to share my food with pests

Another reason for a picnic, especially in a setting as lovely as this, is to sit and write English poetry. Comparing your love to a summer's day and all that. A really gorgeous image. I don't know how much more of this I can take before I book a flight to Heathrow.
