Hi,

Trying to put together a nice picnic.

Was wondering what to include, given the amount of keen cooking enthusiasts I thought I'd ask for some ideas.

So far:

- half bottle of champagne
- cheese and biscuits (blue and mature cheddar that I'd already of sliced.

Unsure of what else, sandwiches etc. Maybe olives?

Thanks
 
Asparagus
Cooked meats
Grapes
Rocket salad
Vinaigrette and croutons
Smoked salmon
Prawn cocktail
Scones

Gilly must be posh to suggest all that so print off his list and get buying!!

Edit, how about some crusty bread too?
 
Some jam and cream to go with those scones.

Damn you Gilly, you've set off a need for grapes.
