OK, so it’s not in Suffolk, and strictly speaking it’s not somewhere to buy a decent meal.

How about a picnic in Thetford forest on a sunny weekend afternoon?

A couple of picnic chairs, a cool bag, a bottle of chilled champagne and a couple of pick and mix salads from your favourite supermarket. I know it’s not haute cuisine, but it really is a very pleasant way of spending a lunch time, and the best part of the afternoon if you have a blanket and a decent newspaper!

There are a couple of decent large forestry commission car park on the A134 to the north of Thetford, and no doubt several other secluded places elsewhere.

Don’t forget to bring a designated driver!
