The world's longest picnic table - picture

Following on from our very own giant meaty sandwich, farmer Jason Gathorne-Hardy has made what could be the longest picnic table in the world.

At 100 metres, the table smashes last year's Big Lunch attempt by a whopping 10 metres.



Gathorne-Hardy made the table from home-grown, home-milled English oak.

It is set on six-inch thick pine gate posts, and seats around 250 people.

The table isn't just for show - it was used last weekend at the Big Spring Picnic at the Farmer's Suffolk home in Great Glenham.

Part of the Alde Valley Spring Festival, the White House Farm event saw members of the public sign up, bring their own chairs and join in the festivities.
