Some Reality

To celebrate the (astronomical) first day of Spring/vernal equinox, on Thursday Storm has set up a picnic on the west side of the new forest. Blankets are scattered around the ground, each one with several cushions and a big picnic basket packed with plates, cutlery, glasses and an assortment of picnic food - cheese, fruit, cold meat cuts, salads, croissants, and desserts in little jars. There's also a few different drinks (non-alcoholic) in bigger jars with dispenser taps. It's a mix of casual and elegant - and of course, the weather is perfect.
