I've had a look at the local map from the website in question and realised I knew most of them anyway from my days as 'mother of 4 children'. Those council parks sure come in handy for more than just the play equipment.
That said, apart from a local Maccas which had become part of our Thursday lunch/loo routine as it's in an area further from home, usually I try to factor our lunchtime at home where I can feel more comfy when it's time to go.
