Come for a picnic in Merrion Square this Friday lunchtime

Since @picnicinthecity followed me on Twitter I’ve been wondering what it’s all about - all they’ve really said so far is

“Getting ready for a picnic in Merrion Square, Dublin on 11 September 09 - hope you can join us”

So being the enterprising young fella I am, I went to find out more…

Picnic in the City on Friday, September 11 from 12.30 to 2.30pm is brought to you by the Nature Valley brand. It’s an open invitation to enjoy live jazz music from saxaphonist Serge Stavila, to have a complimentary picnic and to try out their new Chewy Trail snack bar which is being launched. It’s all free.

Lindsay Hill from Nature Valley said: “Picnics are becoming a thing of the past for time-starved professionals. We want to bring back the simple pleasures that make all the difference to your day, such as relaxing with a Nature Valley Chewy Trail Mix Bar”

Then again, she would say that, wouldn’t she? Still, sounds like it could be a better way to spend lunchtime (if the weather holds) than in front of the monitor or stuck in a noisy sandwich bar.

See you there maybe?
