OUTDOORLIVING
THE ULTIMATE
SUMMER GARDEN PARTY
SUMMER MAY WELL BE FLEETING IN OUR TYPICALLY TEMPERATE COUNTRY,
HOWEVER IT IS EQUALLY FABULOUS – AS SOON AS THE SUNSHINE REARS ITS HEAD,
MOST OF US RUSH TO THE SHOPS QUICKER THAN A STAMPEDE OF MIGRATING WILDEBEEST
TO STOCK UP ON EVERYTHING WE NEED FOR THAT ULTIMATE OF GATHERINGS: THE
SUMMER GARDEN PARTY. FIRSTLY, PICK A DATE AND LET YOUR FRIENDS KNOW – IT’S LIKELY
YOU’LL BE INVITED TO A FEW ACROSS OUR SHORT-LIVED SUNNY SEASON, AND DATE
CLASHES NEED TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS – THEN, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS FOLLOW
OUR HANDY TIPS AND GUIDELINES AND YOU’RE GOOD TO GO. BY POLLY HUMPHRIS
