Picnickers hampered by the car


PICNIC-lovers are missing out on beauty spots because they refuse to venture far from their cars.


Only one in five walk more than a quarter of a mile from where they park to eat, a survey found.One reason for picknickers' lack of adventure is the amount of kit they bring, such as cool boxes, portable fridges, tables and chairs.A third walked only a few yards before opening the hamper and 10 per cent even ate inside their cars.A spokesman said: "We know from the demand for outdoor equipment how much they are part of summer life."
