I have a variant on that but it must be on film.  I've been looking for ages.

I wasn't sure I'd find one, but this shot of the Serpentine has people sitting out on a patio.

I'm the same - can't think of an example.   This is pushing the definition of a patio a bit, certainly in the foreground.  There is one in the middle ground, just the other side of the little closed dock, where we have eaten in the building but not on the patio outside.  Unfortunately it is a wee bit small in this photo.

It is annoying when you remember taking a particular photograph but despite tagging everything you just can't find it. For the trains theme I spent far too long looking for shots of those land trains typically used to transport tourists from the beach to places of interest at holiday resorts, when the children were small we occasionally would ride on one, I have no photographic evidence of the things even existing.

My roof terrace in Spain is relatively private and I often get my kit off when lying out. My neighbour told me last year that he poked his head around the wall to say hello and got a nice surprise. He wouldn’t be drawn into whether he was impressed or not!

Beer gardens are pub patios.

Very quick edit this morning whilst sat in the sunshine, it may well be too dark, I will revisit later when I can see the screen of my laptop a little better.

I know the feeling.
It has been worse than winter up here in the further NW. I'm totally scunnered!

Best I can do is a patio rose.
