Swing Dance Picnic on Sunday, 27th July, 2008

The series of summer picnics at Regent's Park continues.

If the weather has a tantrum: call my back-up mobile 07910 028 075 after 2pm for a voicemail message re possible alternative indoor venue. Otherwise, meet
at the picnic venue at 2pm and we'll travel as a group, if the other venue is available!

We offer:

1. The thrilling suspense of unknown weather!

2. Entertainment from the inimitable Mr John Barnes.

3. A beautiful part of Regent's Park with all essential facilities nearby (after many hours research).

4. Dancing in the dappled sunshine of shading trees.

5. Continuous summer swing music from the swing-beat boom-box.

6. Croquet for the amateur sporting sophisticates.


You bring:

1. Yourself, friends & family.

2. A favourite swing track or two to play.

3. Food & drink, maybe even some to share!

4. A fierce determination to have a fun, relaxed attitude.

5. A blanket, suntan lotion, sunglasses, umbrella, wellies and a hoodie!

6. Most important of all, besides your good selves: an azure sky, moderate humidity and a gentle cooling breeze (we live in hope).
