Oz
actually people even take them to public
parks and have a BBQ there.

Certainly not in this town, a picnic perhaps, but these are formal parks
not
sprawling wildlife areas, we don't need them with countryside so close to
town centres

Most farmers are somewhat unkeen on random bbq's happening on their
land. However a nice park is ideal, plenty of space for the kids and you
can invite lots of people. Its just a somewhat upmarket picnic after
all.


as I say, we don't have that sort of park. What we do have is beach on three
sides of us (except where the docks are obviously ;-) ) so you will get
people drive out and drink a few beers round an drift wood fire.
Sometimes they might cook something as well
