Question of the week: Where would you recommend for a good picnic spot? "St. James's Park is possibly my favourite park in London. It is the oldest Royal Park, which I think is fun. Also, I like the pond, and I like how it is situated amidst some of the most important landmarks and political buildings, and yet has been allowed to remain a green oasis in the city (to be a bit trite...). There may still be ducklings on the pond if you need a dose of nature...
Take a sandwich, or buy something at the Inn in the Park or one of the stands. And if the weather turns a bit showery (like it has been recently) you can always get a coffee at the Inn, or head to one of the nearby museums (like the Household Cavalry Museum at Horseguards, or the Churchill War Rooms near the Foreign and Commonwealth Office).
So, central location, the possibility of baby birds, and places to go in the rain - what more do you want from a picnic locale?"- Kris
