Unexpected picnic, dialogue, keeping cool

An unexpected picnic with daughter Pippa and grandchildren at Pesnhurst Place, where an obstacle course playground absorbs the children's boundless energy.

There is children's entertainment on the theme of Pinochio on a grass stage in the Penshurst Garden: Actor (To the audience): Do you know who I am?
Grandchild: You're an idiot (idiot is this four-year old's favourite word, his embarassed mother says).
Actor: The critics are here. We've got a critic from the Guardian.

I lose my notebook, and succeed in not getting upset about it.
