Everyone one of us has many gifts for the world. And one of mine has always been the ability to get people together. A few years ago, I decided to get all my friends, contacts and acquaintances together in one place for a picnic.

I called it the “Friends and Friend’s Friends Picnic”, held every August. It is now time once again for this annual gathering in Regents Park.

The idea is to get a lot of friends and their friends together. I invite all my friends and they invite all their friends and they invite their friends and so on……and before we know, there will be 100’s of friends, new and old, having a lot of fun.

(By the way, what is YOUR special gift for the world?!)

Everyone is invited to bring their own food and drinks plus some extra to share. We will also be playing football, frisbee etc for fun, so bring those trainers and sports gear. And of course children are most welcome. If you haven’t got any, borrow some for the day!

There are lots of things you can do in Regents Park. There is boating on the lake, heronry and waterfowl collections to visit, and of course the world famous Rose garden.

We will also be having some African drumming and singing. Bring along any musical instrument that you would like to play.

Please note that this picnic will be happening no matter what the weather is on the day!

A heat wave is forecast for mid August so it should be a great day out for all of us.

The details are as follows:-

Date: Sunday 19th August 2007

This is the sixth year running that I have organised this Friends and Friend’s Friends Picnic. It is now an annual event and is held every year in August.

The theme for this year’s picnic is “Friendship, Fun and Peace”, so let’s all go for it.
