RAIN PLAN β
We've got Kent St Hotel booked as our back-up plan. Same time 1pm-6pm. And it'll still be BYO food & we're still doing the turkeys so either way, this picnic is on!!
BYO plates and cutlery just in case, but it'd be nice if someone can bring a bunch of plates/cutlery/napkins as backup for those who forget.
