The weather was kind on Friday evening......... a sunny warm evening for a picnic in Savill Garden before seeing an out door production of Sense & Sensibility by Jane Austin presented by the Chapterhouse Theatre Company to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of the novel's publication.
I thought all week that I was going to see Pride & Prejudice! So for my benefit I looked up a brief overview of what this Austin escapade was about. Elinor and Marianne Dashwood make their first forays into the excitingly decadent world of eighteenth-century society. & this lively tale follows the sisters as they fall in love, make mistakes and experience heartbreak for the first time in their quest to find a balance between sense and sensibility
We were indeed lucky with the weather as the week up until Friday had been wet and cold and Saturday was wet as well.Some photos of the evening......

| Delicious picnic - yum! |
It got a bit chilly as the evening progressed though - not quite the balmy summer's evening but there haven't been too many of these!

A very pleasant evening!
