Definitely Ok for warm weather; nice and salty. As long as there's plenty of wine and water it's very nice.

1 Set up inflatable pool http://www.qualityinflatables.com/im...57981large.jpg in garden
2 Drive to wine merchants to purchase 5 cases of Muscadet.
3 Continue on to butcher´s shop to purchase quality Parma ham and salamis.

Shall report from time to time on progress.

Are you sure 5 cases will be enough?

Indeed. Rather looking forward to sitting under my favourite tree with a glass of wine, some salami, TMS on the radio and a pool to jump in if it all gets too hot and tiring to bear.

Dont forget to set up the video camera in case your pool has one of those "You've been framed moments".

Enjoy the break.
