Ever had a hamper from Fortnum & Mason?

Very nice but usually containing some strange comestibles – Scottish shortbread, ginger preserve, gentleman’s relish. And often quite a lot a wood shavings to pack out the wicker basket. The best bit is, of course, the basket itself. It remains long after the shortbread has been eaten and the gentleman’s relish thrown away. If you have a picnic basket, today is the perfect day to fill it with food you actually like and head off to the coast. Make sure this is playing when you catch that first glimpse of the sea.
